I love the flowers and it’s just gorgeous this one is quite easy to manage and I’ve had it for a couple of years. I really need to repot it ASAP tho cause the roots are growing through the bottom

I love the look of this cactus. It’s so unique.
For a year, mine grew slow and didn’t bloom, but stayed healthy and looking fresh and green.
I moved him closer to the light just two weeks ago and it already has five tiny pads growing. I would love to see it bloom, that’s the next goal.

I love this one. This was my first plant I didn’t kill. Grows fast, always as little babies growing. Only bloomed once in the two almost 3 years I’ve had it.

I got this as a random grocery store plant one day, and it’s stayed alive and reasonably happy for about 5 years now. It’s low-drama as long as it has enough light and I remember to clean it off every few weeks, since it lives on a dusty shelf in my bedroom.

The easiest plant to care for...just leave by light and water occasionally.

As Dusty’s name implies, this beauty takes little care & still blooms annually.

Great fun looking plant! Remember not to treat it like a true cactus - it does like to be watered more frequently than a typical cactus would. It is a tropical epiphyte, and loves humidity as well. I water mine approx once every ~12 days, and it enjoys the direct morning sun in my east window.
