Aporocactus flagelliformis

Rat's Tail Cactus, Aporocactus flagelliformis, is a slender and well-branched cactus, which produces bright pink flowers from its stems in spring. In its native habitat of Mexico it is often lithophytic or epiphytic, and its easy-going and fast-growing nature makes it the perfect houseplant if you’re looking to fill a hanging pot or a sunny shelf.

Watering

Water thoroughly and regularly when soil is dry 100% during spring/summer months. Water lightly (if at all) during winter months.

Light requirements

Full sun.

Repotting

This species can live in the same pot for several years. When the roots become too large for its pot, repot into a slightly larger pot. Use a well draining cactus compost, adding extra drainage medium such as perlite, pumice or grit.

Feed

Use a cactus fertiliser 3 times between March - November.
