语源
麒麟掌属的学名由(叶仙人掌属)和希腊语字根(看似)组成,意思就是“看起来好像叶仙人掌属植物”的意思。
特征
麒麟掌属并不像一般的仙人掌,有很大及绿色的叶子,长得像灌木。由于它们有刺座,加上其刺、刺毛及花朵,才能确定它们是仙人掌。它们会在日间开花。 Pereskiopsis is often used as a grafting stock for other cacti, as it promotes quick growth of the scion. Its small diameter makes it an excellent grafting stock for small seedlings, but many species will outgrow the stock and need to be re-grafted or rooted. 它们是热带植物,故不能抵受结霜。在冬季时,当保持种植环境于大约12°C,而且要小心水份。茎部很容易腐烂,特别是在低温,植物生长并不活跃的时候。
