A must-have for cacti lovers!

The Monkey Tail Cactus is highly sought after for its easy care and ornamental qualities. Stems are covered with soft spines and strands of white hair, giving it a furry appearance. As this plant matures, its stems will sprawl and hang – ideal for a hanging basket.

As if that isn't eye-catching enough, this cactus produces salmon red flowers along its stems in the spring and summer. 

A fun one to watch grow! Each stem can grow by nearly a foot every year.

This cactus is not very demanding, but ideal care and conditions include:

• at least 10 hours of bright, direct sunlight (in summer)
• deeply water once the soil has completely dried out (soak and dry method)
• lightly water every 6-8 weeks in winter when the plant is dormant
• well-draining soil
