Growing Information

This cactus thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining cactus mix or sandy soil. Watering should be infrequent, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent root rot. It is hardy in USDA zones 10-11 and grows with an upright, spreading habit that can reach notable heights over time.
