The listing, Plant Start - Ric Rac/Fishbone Cactus has ended.
Plant start - Ric-Rac cactus (Cryptocereus anthonyanus)-AKA: Fish Bone cactus, Zig-Zag cactus, or Anthony's Ric-Rac. The first picture is a stock photo and the second picture is similar to the piece you will receive from my plants.
You will be receiving a 4" plus piece of Ric-Rac cactus. It has a root system in place and will be sent with a little bit of dirt in a newspaper pot that can be transplanted directly to your dirt. Since this is a succulent plant, it doesn't require frequent watering. In fact, it even tolerates some neglect, bouncing back readily once water is restored. The leaves store moisture and use this reserve during times of extensive dry spells, such as with overwintering when watering is decreased to about once a month. While Ric-Rac can handle some sunlight, it generally prefers to grow in bright shade. It can be potted in cactus type soil but also does fine in regular potting soil as long as it has good drainage.
