[2] Stenocereus kerberi is a columnar cactus that can grow to heights of 2 to 3 meters and often forms dense clusters of branched shoots.
The cactus produces slender, funnel-shaped flowers that are deep pink and open during the day, measuring 10 to 12 cm in length.
[3] Stenocereus kerberi is endemic to Mexico, being found within the Mexican states of Colima, Jalisco, Nayarit, and Sinaloa.
[4] The species grows in tropical deciduous forest at elevations ranging between 0 to 800 meters above sea level.
The name "kerberi" honors Edmund Kerber, who collected cacti in Mexico and sent samples to Berlin.
