Description

• Echinopsis Chamaecereus is a lovely cactus popular amongst collectors and succulent enthusiasts. 
• Grows to approximately 10 cm height and has a spreading/trailing habit.
• The spikes are not too sharp and the plant can easily be handled without gloves.
• Beautiful Red/Orange Flowers cover this plant in spring.

Position and Care

• Echinopsis Chamaecereus is a very versatile plant and grows in full sun as well as shade. In the sun it will grow more compact while plants in the shade will stretch a bit, but not enough to spoil the look.

• The Peanut Cactus is drought hardy and will survive without water for long periods. 
• Can be grown indoors in a very bright spot.
• Prefers free-draining potting mix.

Suggestions

• A beautiful plant that provides texture and contrast in gardens and rockeries.
• Can be used as a filler in-between plants, thanks to its trailing habit.
