• Our soil mix is tailored to provide the perfect balance of drainage, aeration, and moisture retention that cacti and succulents require. These plants are adapted to arid environments and need well-drained soil to prevent root rot and other moisture-related issues. Our blend includes Coarse Perlite, which ensures superior drainage and aeration, allowing roots to breathe and grow without being waterlogged.
• Light Requirements: Thrives in bright, indirect light, mimicking the dappled sunlight it receives in its native habitat. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate leaves. Suitable for well-lit rooms or spaces near east- or north-facing windows.
• Watering Frequency: Maintain consistent moisture by watering when the top inch of soil feels dry. Overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot, but do not allow the plant to dry out completely.
• Physical Characteristics: Boasts long, trailing stems with deeply lobed, vibrant green leaves that resemble sharks teeth. Mature plants can reach impressive lengths of 4-6 feet, adding dramatic flair to any hanging or elevated display.
• Temperature Tolerance: Thrives in temperatures between 60F and 80F and prefers high humidity levels. While it can tolerate brief temperature drops, prolonged exposure to cold below 50F should be avoided to maintain its health.
