Gymnocalycium capillense 'Day Dream' [1-1.5"] [bare root]

Highlights

'Day Dream' (Gymnocalycium capillense): A dreamy pink cactus with a pleasant, geometric form. It grows slowly, but will eventually offset to form a neat cluster. Look for white to pink blooms in the spring and summer months. This plant is shipped bare root, without a pot, and measures anywhere between 1" to 1.5" in diameter.

This cactus variety will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures 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.
