Description

The listing, Cereus validus Cactus Seeds has ended.

Peruvian apple cactus picks up the common name, because of its 1-2 inch fleshy, red apple like fruit.

You’ll find the cereus cactus plant grown normally as multiple “cuttings” planted in various heights, such as a 2 and 3 foot trunk planted in a 10 inch container.

Larger pots of 14 and 17 inch having 3 or 4 of the columnar trunks planted of different lengths reaching a height of 4-6 feet and occasionally taller.

The stems or trunks have a gray-green coloring along with 6 to 8 vertical ribs. When the flowers emerge they are typically 2-4 inches and white.

The cactus Cereus peruvianus is a very upright plant and is used mainly as a floor plant. Taking smaller plants, elevating them and combining some interesting pottery or containers can create some very interesting effects and looks… sort of like “living art”.

Many people think from the start that since the plant is a cactus or in the cactus family it shouldn’t be watered or it only needs a little. In the watering department it wants to be watered well.

What this plant wants as well as most cactus is VERY GOOD DRAINAGE, warmth, sun and low humidity. This plant is a perfect candidate for a sunny south, east or west window.

The plant can handle low light levels but thrives in bright light.

WINNER will receive 20 seeds

It does have some but they are not that bad. I have mine in the corner of the yard and it has about 13 of them coming up. Then I have another in a pot with it tiered 3 times. They really are beautiful! You will probably get more than 20 because it is too hard to count them out. Good luck and I hope this helps you with your question!
