Enjoy watching succulent, water-storing stems and impressive geometric shapes form into one of the longest living plants on earth. About a year after sowing, you should have a plant about 1" tall. This packet contains approximately six varieties including but not limited to saguaro cactus, Emory's barrel cactus, southwestern barrel cactus, Arizona barrel cactus, prickly pear cactus, and strawberry cactus.

Growing Info

Special Care: Ensure excellent drainage and growing conditions to prevent disease while growing indoors. Be sure to use a pot with a drainage hole to avoid overwatering. After the first winter, slowly harden the plants by providing a longer drying period and increasingly brighter light. By year two, you should have strong starts that would be ready to transplant outdoors, if desired.

    Who would've thought I could grow cactus from seed...in Oregon...in the winter? I certainly was a BIG skeptic but here are my adorable babes, getting their first spines! I was amazed by the rate of germination and how easily they sprouted and grew with just a grow light and some patience. Now all my friends and family want a baby cactus.
