Scientific Name: Echinocereus triglochidiatus 

Please Note: Our collection includes bare-root WITHOUT any soil or pot and cuttings. Some of our plants may have minor scars, yet each one is guaranteed to arrive in optimal health and excellent condition. Additionally, any discoloration at the base of the cactus, particularly in rooted variants, is a typical result of previous planting in soil.

Cactus Care

Light: Place your Echinocereus triglochidiatus in a location that receives full sun for the best growth and flowering. It can tolerate partial shade, but bright light is essential.

Water: Water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

Soil: Use well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix. Avoid regular potting soil, which can retain too much moisture.

Temperature: This cactus is hardy in USDA zones 7-11 and can tolerate temperatures down to 10°F. Protect it from frost during colder months.

Feeding: Fertilize sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced cactus fertilizer diluted to half strength.

Potting: Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its container. Use a pot with drainage holes to prevent water accumulation.

Pests: Generally pest-resistant, but watch out for common cactus pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with appropriate insecticides or natural remedies.

Propagation: Can be propagated from offsets (pups) that form around the base of the plant. Carefully separate and plant in well-draining soil.

Beautiful cactus!

Decided to order the hedgehog cactus and upon receiving it, it’s larger than I anticipated and I absolutely love it! Has a few blooms on it already too. Go ahead and order one today!!

Spectacular!

I can't believe how large this is. I was expecting a mini cactus. This is an 8 inch pot (across). As you can see from the photo it has 3+ stems. And a bloom starting. Can't wait to see it open.
Thank you Cactus Warehouse!
