Cactus, Fairy Castle

Scientific Name: Acanthocereus tetragonus cv. 'Fairy Castle' Common Names: Fairy Castle Cactus Cacti have become a beloved choice for indoor plants due to their minimal upkeep and vast array of species with unique growth patterns. Plus, their playful and quirky aesthetics are sure to make you smile (and maybe even do a double take)! Resembling the towering turrets of a fairy tale castle, this cactus features lovely, deep green, multi-branched columns. A slow growing cactus, this varietal is known as a very easy and forgiving plant. At their maturity, they can even produce a beautiful white or yellow bloom! This is a very rare occasion and they will only open at dusk and close by the morning, so make sure to keep and eye out.  Basic Care: Desert-dwelling cacti are low-maintenance, and as a result, sometimes they accidentally get completely neglected, so don't forget about your new addition! Use a very well-draining soil, such as a cactus mix. Water when soil is completely dry, which is usually about once a month in the average indoor environment. Lots of bright, indirect light is ideal for most cacti, and they will struggle without enough sunlight.  Watering Test: If your cactus is squeezable - without getting poked - give it a gentle squeeze. If it feels squishy or looks wrinkly, it needs a watering.  ***Due to the unique nature of plants, the one we carefully choose for you won't look exactly like the photos. but it will be just as beautiful!
