Why you'll love the Pincushion Cactus:
Eye-catching Appearance: Covered in soft, white spines that resemble a pincushion, this cactus offers a unique textural element. As it matures, it may produce small, vibrant pink or reddish flowers, adding a pop of color to its already captivating look.
Easy Care: Perfect for busy individuals or those new to plant ownership. Simply provide it with bright, indirect light and water sparingly.
Compact Size: Ideal for windowsills, desks, or any small space that needs a touch of greenery. Its compact size also makes it a great choice for terrariums or miniature gardens.
Long-lasting Beauty: With proper care, the Pincushion Cactus can live for many years, bringing lasting beauty to your home.
Conversation Starter: Its unique appearance is sure to spark conversations and admiration from guests.
Care Tips:
Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct, intense sunlight, especially during the hottest parts of the day, as this can scorch the delicate spines.
Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of problems for cacti. In the winter months, reduce watering even further.
Soil: Use a well-draining cactus/succulent potting mix. This will prevent waterlogging and promote healthy root growth.
Temperature: Prefers average room temperatures. Avoid exposing it to freezing temperatures.
Repotting: Repot only when necessary, using a slightly larger pot than the current one. Use caution when handling to avoid damaging the spines.
Bring a touch of the desert to your life! Order your Pincushion Cactus today and enjoy its unique beauty for years to come.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
