Caring for your Cactus
 
Pot: Most smaller cactus species from drier regions are best suited to cultivation in containers. Larger growing species can be grown outside in the rockery.
 
Soil: The plants prefer a well-drained soil, a mixture of sandy soil with some organic matter.
 
Light: The brighter the light the more compact and colourful your cactus will be. Most cacti species prefer growing in sunny positions. However, they can tolerate partial shade if not over-watered.
 
Water: Cacti are very hardy plants and are able to withstand prolonged droughts. A good watering every week or two should suffice. Watering should be drastically reduced in winter.
