Description of Dotted Green Moon Cactus
With the uniqueness of the spine patterns this tiny Dotted Green Moon Cactus is a real gem and one of the most sought-after and distinctive species. Pot plants are quite wet-sensitive. Care must be taken with watering, and they need good drainage. Water sparingly during the growing season, keep very dry in winter. Usually it is recommended to over-winter this plant in a bright and warm greenhouse with at least 8-10° C , but it has proved to tolerate temperatures as low as -5° C for short periods. These cacti are relatively easy to care for, requiring bright indirect light and minimal watering. They are suitable for indoor environments and can tolerate periods of drought.
