Euphorbia obesa is a rare and sought-after euphorbia species that will grow well indoors. As it matures, the ball-like shape will stretch to oblong and harden along the ridge lines. Mature obesa are coveted for their unique appearance and markings. Though fairly common in cultivation, unsustainable harvesting has pushed this species to near extinction. As a result, legislation has been enacted to protect the remaining population. Nursery and botanic gardens have been growing this species en masse to mitigate the amount of harvesting of this plant in the wild and further protect native plants. We only source plants from growers who have collected seeds legally and adhere to CITES regulations.

Fockea edulis is an unusual plant native to South Africa and Namibia, where the dry savannah and rocky slopes house its huge, water retaining caudex. This fat, twisted root is often lifted above the soil by collectors to give this plant the impression that it’s actually a miniature, wide-trunked tree. Semi-deciduous, this plant sheds leaves in the winter and relies on stored water for a semi-dormant period. Then, come late summer, it bursts forth with green-copper flowers. The term "caudex" refers to the enlarged, swollen, and often woody base of the plant that stores water and nutrients. This caudex is a common characteristic of many succulent and semi-succulent plants, including various species within the genus Fockea. Fockea edulis does best in filtered sun, 4 to 5 hours a day. Avoid intense afternoon sun by sheltering this plant beneath the limbs of a larger plant or placing it in the shadow of a sheer curtain. Grow outdoors in light shade or indoors in a sunny window with southern exposure. Native to arid and sub-tropical climates, Fockea edulis are drought tolerant plants. Water when the soil dries out in the summer and only infrequently during the winter. Their soil should be allowed to dry out entirely before watering thoroughly.

A native to Cuba, the Melocactus matanzanus is an etraordinary cactus. When it reaches a certain age of maturity, the Melocactus grows a cephalium from its center. This structure is where the flower buds will form and bloom. The size of the cephalium can signify how old the plant is. The Melocactus prefer at least 4 to 6 hours of sun daily. Indoors a south facing window is ideal. Water only when the soil has dried out completely. Always err on the side of under-watering. They are built to withstand drought. Fertilize starting in spring through summer to promote healthy growth and root systems.

The Cereus Forbesii 'Spiralis' is a rare cultivar of the Cereus forbesii prized for it's spiral growth habit. When grown from seed, the Spiralis won't start twisting until it reaches a height of 3-4" tall.  The Spiralis should be grown in a mix of direct and indirect sun and dry conditions. During the grow season, it should be watered thoroughly, when the soil is dry. During cold, winter months, it should be left to dry between waterings and watered sparingly. The spiralis will bloom big, beautiful white blossoms between June and August. Ensure the light requirements are met and increase watering and fertilization. The blossoms only open at night and span 2-4" wide. Spiralis can be fed with a cactus fertilizer once per month, spring through fall.

Echinocereus rigidissimus var. rubrispinus is commonly called the rainbow hedgehog cactus and best known for its beautiful pink coloration. This petite plant typically grows to reach 30 cm tall by 11 cm wide. Aptly named, it bears new spines that are magenta colored and fade to yellow or light pink with maturity. Echinocereus rigidissimus grows as a stocky, solitary stem, rarely producing offsets. Endemic to parts of northwest Mexico and southwest United States, it can be found growing on rocky slopes at high elevation. Echinocereus rigidissimus are desert cacti that require full sun. The more sun this cactus receives, the more brilliant the spine coloration will become. Echinocereus rigidissimus plants are extremely drought tolerant. Water them thoroughly, fully saturating the soil. Always allow the soil to dry out completely in between waterings. Echinocereus rigidissimus var. rubrispinus flower in the spring, from late April to early June. Flowers buds are borne in clusters from the top of the cacti. Blossoms are bright pink in color. Fertilize during the growing season to stimulate growth and blooms.
