Cacti

This is a continuation of Cacti genera.

We are no longer selling Epiphyllums.

Various Cacti

Cacti are shipped bare-root, generally from 2 1/2 in. pots. When received, remove any damaged roots and pot in a porous, sandy soil, slightly moistened. Keep in semi-shade for a week or so. Water as needed after that time. Most need sun, very moderate watering in summer, cool and dry in winter. List of other cacti available in very limited quantities is available as a Microsoft Word Document or send a SASE.
