FREE: Rat-Tail cactus (5 starts)

The listing, Rat-Tail cactus (5 starts) has ended.

The Aporocactus flagelliformis (rat tail cactus) has thin stems (usually about a 1/4" in diameter) that can grow five feet long and hang down over the sides of its pot.

The stems are covered with short, reddish brown spines. The two to three inch long red flowers can last for several days.

The rat tail cactus needs bright light and coarse heavy soil with excellent drainage. Drench and let dry, but water more sparingly during the winter. Air that is too dry can encourage red spider; air that is too moist can encourage rot.

In winter, keep the plants cold and dry to encourage blooming. Mine has grow to 4' long, and is very pretty when in bloom!

Shipping can be paid by paypal or money order, or cash under cover. Must be paid in 7 days, or item will be relisted! Sorry, there are some who spoil it for many!
