These unpretentious plants can complement any interior, but they still require care.

Anyone who decides to buy such a plant should remember that it requires 4 to 6 hours of bright sunlight every day. But some species may be too sensitive to it.

The best place for a pot with this plant is where there is diffused light from a window.

At the same time, cacti should be protected from drafts, which means that a window that is constantly open is definitely not suitable for this.

Cacti should be watered abundantly in summer and spring – once every 10 days. In winter, it is better to reduce the number of procedures to once a month.

Cold water should not be used for irrigation.

This can only cause harm. Cacti need to be watered with room temperature water.
