HOW TO ROOT YOUR CUTTINGS

1. Carefully unpack the cuttings and inspect them on arrival.

2. If the cut ends are fresh, allow them to dry and form a callus before planting.

3. Place the callused ends into a suitable, well-draining cactus mix.

4. Keep the mix on the dry side while roots begin to develop. Avoid heavy watering before rooting, as excess moisture can cause rot.

5. Provide bright light and gradually acclimate the cuttings to stronger sunlight.

Rooting time varies with temperature, light, cutting condition, and care. Successful rooting is not guaranteed.

LIGHT AND WATERING

Peanut Cactus generally prefers bright light and a well-draining growing medium. Once established, water thoroughly when the growing medium has dried appropriately, then allow excess water to drain. Avoid leaving the cactus in soggy soil.

FLOWERS AND GROWTH

Mature Peanut Cactus plants may produce vivid orange flowers under suitable growing conditions. These cuttings are not flowering plants on arrival, and bloom timing depends on successful rooting, maturity, light, and seasonal conditions.

IMPORTANT ORDER NOTES

• Cuttings may differ in length, thickness, shape, and appearance.

• Minor cosmetic marks may occur and do not necessarily affect the cutting's condition.
