PERUVIAN CACTUS CARE
LIGHT
To encourage growth and flowering, this cactus needs plenty of bright light and can withstand direct sun all day. But, since we're in NYC, you'll most likely be moving the cactus outdoors for the spring and summer. If that's the plan, make sure to do so early in the spring to give the plant enough time to builds up a tolerance to the new amount of light. Be sure to rotate the plant every few weeks to make sure the whole cactus is getting an equal amount of light.
WATER
Just like the rest of the cacti family, water the Peruvian cactus when the soil has dried out completely. Place the pot in a water bath to avoid getting the stalk wet. Let the soil soak up the water it needs, then leave the pot to drain any excess water that has collected.
GROWTH HABITS
Depending on the environment, care, and support, these cacti have been reported to grow anywhere from 5 to 100 feet tall! Without the proper lighting, the cactus will grow slowly and it might get a little thin and lopsided. Soil that is too wet for too long will make the stalk mushy and slouched – this is a sign of root rot.

I purchased a Large Chinese Evergreen as a gift for a friend and she loved it. The blue planter looked exactly like the photo and worked perfectly with her decor. The delivery was extremely fast and their customer service was very responsive and polite. The plant looked beautiful and healthy. I plan to purchase one for myself! I am very pleased with my purchase. Thanks again!
