Colorful Moon Cacti

Commonly known as 'Hibotan' or "Moon" cactus plants. This variant occurs when the plant lacks chlorophyll, causing the body color to manifest as beautiful pink, orange, yellow, or red rather than the typical green. It was discovered that these beautiful seedlings could not survive as they did not have chlorophyll and were therefore incapable of producing the necessary chemical changes that are involved in photosynthesis, resulting in vibrant coloration. 

What to Expect

Each plant is hand-selected to ensure quality and variety. Your mix may include different types of succulents that vary in appearance and may not match the ones pictured. For an extra pop of color, place them in a sunny spot to encourage sun-stressing.

🌱 Care Tips 🌱 

☀️ Grow in bright, indirect light

💦 Only water when the soil is dry; do not overwater these drought-tolerant plants

🌿 Repot in a well-draining soil mix with coarse sand, perlite, or pumice to encourage aeration and prevent root rot

APPEARANCE

Part of what makes succulents so fascinating are the myriad ways they express themselves throughout the year, depending on light, season, temperature, soil, and hydration. For those and other reasons, the plants you receive may not look exactly as they appear on our website.
