and airy part of the greenhouse, and not
too close to the glass roof or sides of the
house as the plants can overheat during
hot spells.

• Temperature:This cactus enjoys temperatures ranging from 70-100°F
(21-37°C), but demands cooler temperatures during the winter months.
• Light:Demands full light growing for most of the year, except during
the winter cycle. For the plant's health, light should be reduced to
partial sun during this time.
• Watering:The Polka-dot Cactus is a desert species. It should be given
water on a regular basis. During the winter cycle, the cactus should not
be watered at all, with watering to resume in the early spring.
• Soil:Like most cacti, this specimen demands sandy soil-bases that
drain easily.
• Propagation:Any fully grown pad from this cactus may be broken off
cleanly in the early summer and re-potted for propagation purposes.
Cuttings work best when grouped in threes or more, and should be
buried an inch deep in the soil. Remember to water regularly
