DescriptionCactus Candelabro de cardones.jpg |
Español: El cactus candelabro tiene un tamaño de hasta 5 m de altura; con ramificaciones situadas en su parte superior, dándole apariencia de candelabro. Posee flores blancas, nocturnas, con algo rosado, 10 cm de largo; fruto oval, de 7,5 cm de largo. Es endémico en el altiplano de Chile y Perú, entre 1700 a 3000 msnm, en condiciones de extrema sequedad. Tolera mínimas de -15 ºC.
La Quebrada de Cardones está ubicada a 65 kilómetros de Arica y es conocida como el reino de los Cactus candelabros, destaca al viajar por la carretera internacional Ch-11 Arica-Tambo Quemado (Bolivia), por ser el punto donde el paisaje se transforma, al aparecer majestuosamente los cactus candelabro. Esta quebrada recibe este nombre, ya que los cactus ramificados se encuentran por toda la quebrada; algunos de ellos alcanzan fácilmente los 5 metros de altura, mientras que otros son más pequeños y sin ramificaciones. Su importancia radica en que los cactus se encuentran únicamente en este lugar del país, un verdadero tesoro natural, emplazado en una zona que, pese a lo desértico del lugar, tiene una rica vida silvestre. Todo un ecosistema adornado por los cactus “candelabros”.
English: The candelabra cactus has a size of up to 5 m in height; with branches located in its upper part, giving it the appearance of a candelabrum. It has white flowers, nocturnal, with something pink, 10 cm long; oval fruit, 7.5 cm long. It is endemic in the highlands of Chile and Peru, between 1700 and 3000 meters above sea level, in conditions of extreme dryness. It tolerates minima of -15 ºC.
The Quebrada de Cardones is located 65 kilometers from Arica and is known as the kingdom of the Candelabra Cactus. It stands out when traveling on the Ch-11 Arica-Tambo Quemado international road (Bolivia), because it is the point where the landscape changes, when the candelabra cactus appears majestically. This stream receives this name, since the branched cacti are found throughout the ravine; some of them easily reach 5 meters in height, while others are smaller and without branches. Its importance lies in the fact that cacti are found only in this part of the country, a true natural treasure, located in an area that, despite the deserts of the place, has a rich wildlife. An entire ecosystem adorned by the cactus "candelabra". |
