What you’ll receive:

A healthy, rooted Ball Cactus shipped bare-root. Size will match the option selected at checkout. No pot or soil included. Minor cosmetic scars may be present and are normal for mature, field-grown plants.

After arrival

Unpack carefully and place the cactus in a bright, dry location. Allow it to rest for a few days before planting. Once potted, wait about a week before watering lightly.

Transplant tip

Plant in a fast-draining cactus mix with excellent drainage. Keep the base of the cactus slightly above the soil line. Water sparingly after planting to prevent rot.

Cold Weather Warning

If your area drops below 40°F during the colder months, we highly recommend adding a heat pack to your order, as we don’t automatically include one. This helps keep your plants safe in transit. 🌡️❄️
