Why choose a Cereus peruvianus?


The Peruvian columnar cactus is more than just a decorative plant. This strong cactus is known for its adaptability and easy care.

In addition, the Cereus peruvianus fits perfectly into contemporary interiors thanks to its timeless and natural look.


Peruvian Columnar Cactus Care


• Location: Give the Cereus a sunny spot with lots of direct light. It likes warmth and brightness, both indoors and outdoors.

• Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. In the summer, water every 2-3 weeks, and in the winter, water only sporadically.

• Temperature: This cactus thrives in temperatures between 18-30°C and can survive light frost, but prolonged cold should be avoided.

• Soil: Use well-draining cactus soil with added sand or grit for optimum drainage.

• Repotting: The Cereus peruvianus is slow growing and only needs to be repotted into a larger pot every few years.
