ROOTED CUTTINGS WILL COME BAREFOOT. APPROXIMATELY 6-7 INCHES. I MAIL OUT MONDAY - WEDNESDAY. NOVICE GARDENERS COULD NOT ASK FOR AN EASIER PLANT THAN A FISHBONE CACTUS HOUSEPLANT. THE CACTUS GROWS IN LOW SOIL MEDIA, SUCH AS ORCHID SUBSTRATE. YOU CAN ALSO PLANT IT IN CACTUS BLEND MIXED WITH COMPOST TO ENRICH THE MEDIUM. FISHBONE CACTUS THRIVES IN INDIRECT LIGHT BUT CAN TOLERATE PERIODS OF BRIGHT SUN. LIKE MOST CACTI, FISHBONE CACTUS HOUSEPLANT DOES BEST WHEN ALLOWED TO DRY OUT BETWEEN WATERING. DURING WINTER, CUT WATERING IN HALF AND THEN REINSTATE WHEN SPRING GROWTH BEGINS. FERTILIZE WITH A WATER-SOLUBLE CACTUS OR ORCHID FERTILIZER IN EARLY SPRING. YOU CAN PLACE YOUR PLANT OUTSIDE IN SPRING AND SUMMER BUT DO NOT FORGET TO BRING IT IN WHEN TEMPERATURES START TO COOL OFF.
