Highlights
Echinopsis calochlora (Schumann): A small, clustering cactus from Brazil of electric green. The round, globose stems develop 23-26 ribs, notched with sunken areoles. Despite its diminutive size, it blooms with giant, fragrant, white flowers with multiple tiers of petals. Each stem stays under 3.5" wide, but offsets into a mounded cluster.
This cactus variety will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of temperatures below 40F, it can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. Cactus need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 70% to 80% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply and wait for the soil to completely dry out before watering again.
