Cleistocactus Winteri – Golden Rat Tail Cactus

Sold out

$9.25

Sold out

This cactus will trail down from your pot, and is covered with soft hair-like spines. They are a bit pokey so be careful. Produces brilliant coral red flowers, really stunning. An easy plant.

Closely related to the Monkey Tail Cactus.

Size
2.5″ pot

Soil
Use a very well draining soil mix. Store bought cactus and succulent mix often retains too much water. You can add gritty materials like pumice, lava rock, or perlite to loosen it up and improve drainage. Your mix should be at least half gritty ingredients. Use a pot with drain holes so the soil can dry out. 

Water
Soak your plants thoroughly, then let them dry out completely before watering again. Frequency will depend on your climate. Check for dryness by sticking your finger into the top of the soil, or looking into the drain holes at the bottom of the pot. 

Bare Root Shipping
Most of our plants ship bare root to save on shipping cost. This means the plant will not include a pot or soil. Some plants are shipped in the pot to avoid damage.
