I made the mistake and initially planted the cactus in a direction where it got too much sun. Who knew? I contacted the Cactus Outlet who advised what I had done wrong. They also said they would replace it. I felt since it was my fault so I would work with the plant I had. Fortunately I had planted it in a planter so I just turned the planter. All has been well ever since. Thank you Cactus Outlet. Five stars.
Incredible specimen. Flawless with zero blems, and it’s the size of a volleyball!! Has very well-developed root system. It has been an awe-inspiring addition to my ever-growing collection. I cannot take my eyes off of it! So glad that I decided to make this purchase!
So far about three weeks later - it is alive! Beautiful cactus!
