Plant/Product Description:
The Assorted Crested Cactus collection features a selection of unique and striking cactus varieties that have developed distinctive crested (or cristate) growth forms. These cacti are prized for their unusual, fan-shaped, or wavy structures, which result from a natural mutation. The assortment includes crested varieties from popular cactus genera like Echinocactus, Trichocereus, Mammillaria, and others. These cacti make a bold statement in any garden or home and are highly sought after by collectors. Their sculptural forms and vibrant blooms, combined with their hardiness, make them perfect for rock gardens, container displays, or as a centerpiece in any succulent arrangement.

Plant Care Notes:

  • Sunlight: Thrives in full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Full sun enhances their shape and encourages healthy growth.
  • Water: Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry. Reduce watering during the cooler months to prevent overwatering.
  • Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or pumice for proper aeration and drainage.
  • Propagation: Crested cacti are usually propagated by cutting from the crest itself, allowing the cut end to callous before replanting in well-draining soil.
  • Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids. Regular inspections help maintain healthy plants.

Toxicity:
Assorted Crested Cactus varieties are generally non-toxic to humans and pets, but care should be taken due to their spines, which can cause irritation. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
