-
Meet Aurelia, the Unicorn Cactus. She’s never understood the phrase “ordinary houseplant,” and she doesn’t intend to start now.
With her spiraling silhouette and impeccable posture, Aurelia brings a little storybook magic to the room. She accepts compliments graciously, considers every windowsill a potential throne, and insists her horn is proof of royal lineage.
Ryder remains unconvinced. Aurelia has graciously chosen to overlook this.
Your perfect match if: You like your companions a little unusual, a little dramatic, and entirely sure of themselves.
