Plant Description

The Aporocactus flagelliformis, commonly known as the Rat-Tail Cactus, is a popular clustering cactus famed for its long, trailing stems. At 15-45 cm in length, its slender, cylindrical stems can cascade dramatically from containers or hanging baskets. The stems are covered in tiny, golden spines, giving them a textured appearance. In spring, the Rat-Tail Cactus produces vivid pink to magenta tubular flowers, adding a splash of color to its striking, pendulous form. This easy-to-grow, drought-tolerant cactus thrives in bright light and dry conditions, making it an ideal choice for hanging gardens.
