Cereus Forbesii Monstrose in 3.5 inch pot - Succulent / cactus - “Ming Thing”
Ships in 3.5 inch pot with soil with priority mail.
This lovably abnormal thing is quite a “thing” indeed...“Ming thing.” It’s a monstrose (monster) form of Cereus forbesii (aka C. validus), meaning that it exhibits naturally occurring mutant growth, in the form of sculptural club-like shapes. Woolly areoles and short black spines appear on top of these myriad bizarro stems, which kind of resemble rounded, clenched fists. Ming thing is excellent for windowsill or dish garden culture. While people tend to think of cacti as sun lovers, this mutant variety is thrilled to bask in shade or filtered light. Prefers warmer temperatures during cold winter months.
Porous cactus soil with adequate drainage
Partial shade to full sun with ample airflow
Water thoroughly when soil is completely dry to the touch. Less water during cold winter months to prevent root loss
Hardiness: USDA Zone 10a (30-35° F)
Protect from frost to prevent scarring
