Freshly cut. Piece shown is of actual cutting you will receive. Rare variety with great sweetness and stunning flower and one of my absolute favorites. Beware the thorns though!

This variety originates from El Grullo, Jalisco State, Mexico, and has exceptional tolerance to both heat and cold, and it also adapts well to most new conditions.The growth of El Grullo is firm, with attractive greyish-green stems. A gray coating on the stem help protects the plant from the heat in the summertime and cold in the wintertime. These stems are very long, thick three-sided segments with prominent spines.Flower budding to flower takes 25 days, and another 30 days from flower to fruit. Flowering blooms are impressive with bright colors and extra-large up to 15 inches in diameter. These night-blooming flowers have white petals and deep red and yellow calyx (outer peddles). Incredible red fleshed fruit!!! Perfect for everyday use. excellent materials and excellent craftsmanship ensure long-lasting durability.
