"Alberto" (Opuntia Monacantha)

$22.00Price

Alberto is an Opuntia Monacantha, also known as Joseph's Coat Cactus.  It's a vibrant, eye-catching cactus with colorful variegated pads in shades of green, yellow, and pink. It grows relatively fast for a cactus and can reach up to 10-15 feet outdoors, though it stays smaller as a houseplant.  Alberto comes in a beautiful handpainted cermic mug. 

Care Instructions:

  • Light: Bright, direct sunlight for 6+ hours a day is ideal.
  • Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering in the winter.
  • Soil: Use well-draining cactus or succulent soil.
  • Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures above 60°F (15°C). Protect from frost.
  • Humidity: Tolerates low humidity well.
