Why purchase our Columnar Cacti?

Our columnar cacti are grown in their native habitat right here in Southern Arizona. Raised outdoors with just the right amount of water and fertilizer, they come to you in their natural form. These plants do not come to you from a greenhouse. They are already hardy to whatever growing conditions you have to offer. Our columnar cacti present the same appearance as you will find them in their native habitats.

If you want to plant them in a container for a sunroom, patio or window planter, great! If you want to take your columnar cacti and plant them in the ground, also great! No acclimation needed. Our plants are ready to go!

Very nice peruvian apple cactus, but....

I was very excited to receive my apple cactus. The transaction and shipping was awesome. However, I'm giving 4 stars. I discovered during unpacking that my cactus was punctured in 2 places. This is not a good look when planted in a professional or high end seting. Fortunately, its healing over, but it makes the plant unattractive.
