Caring Tips and Tricks:

1. Light: Place in a sunny spot where it can receive at least six hours of sunlight daily.
2. Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings, especially during the winter months.
3. Soil: Plant in well-draining soil, such as cactus or succulent mix, to prevent root rot.
4. Temperature: Keep the cactus in a warm environment, avoiding temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
5. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer).
6. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years, preferably in spring, to refresh the soil and provide room for growth.
7. Pruning: Trim any dead or damaged stems with clean, sharp scissors to promote healthy growth.
