Cactus are low maintenance plants can thrive indoors with bright sun, little water, and proper drainage.

• Cactus love the sun, but will be happy to grow indoors on a sunny windowsill. Intense direct sunlight can cause fading. Move to less light if this occurs.
• Saturate the cactus when watering, and then wait for the soil to dry thoroughly before watering again. Do not let cactus sit in water. This will cause the cactus to be overwatered.
• Spring to Fall, water every 3 weeks. Add diluted fertilizer, about ¼ strength.
• Fall to Spring, water every 6 weeks, do not fertilize.
• In cold winter climate, protect from freezing in area with bright lighting; it will thrive with minimal CARE.
