FREE: Pencil Cactus cutting

The listing, Pencil Cactus cutting has ended.

"Pencil" Cactus cutting, very rare & different. Great succulent for hanging! Two nice cuttings per bid!

Instructions:

1 Place the pencil plant in direct, bright sunlight; it won't thrive in low light levels.

2 Plant the pencil plant in a sturdy pot with at least one drainage hole, because the plant will rot in soggy soil. The container should be filled with a potting soil for cactus and succulents or a mixture of half coarse sand and half regular potting soil.

3 Water the pencil plant sparingly and only when the soil is dry -- about twice a month. The plant is drought-tolerant and prefers dry soil.

4 Feed the pencil cactus every other month, using a regular fertilizer for indoor plants. Withhold fertilizer during the winter months.

5 Cut the pencil tree back to the desired size whenever the plant outgrows its boundaries. Use a clean, sterile knife or pruning shears.
