Potted Dog Tail Cactus
Get your own Potted Dog Tail Cactus and enjoy its long, skinny trailing stems that add a unique touch to any space. These cacti, also known as Strophocactus testudo, are versatile, able to grow on the ground or even on other plants. In their natural habitat, these epiphytic (air) plants can reach up to 9 feet tall, often wrapping around trees. Bring the beauty of the jungle into your home with this plant, perfect for hanging baskets and containers.
For optimal growth, Potted Dog Tail Cactus should be placed in a sunny location. This resilient plant thrives in warm, humid environments with well-draining soil. While it does require more watering than most cacti, be careful not to overwater as this may lead to issues such as weak stems or root rot.
