The eight to twelve slender marginal spines are slightly curved and 0.6 centimetres (0.24 in) to 1.2 centimetres (0.47 in) long. The bell-shaped, funnel-shaped scarlet flowers appear on the side or on the shoot shoulder and open during the day. They reach a diameter of up to 4 centimetres (1.6 in).
