Origin
The Cactus mini mix originates from the dry desert areas of North and South America. They are a diverse range of cactus species, each with their own unique growth and flowering patterns, coming together in this versatile collection. They have adapted to extreme weather conditions and have evolved to survive in poor soil and under intense heat and sunlight.

Characteristics
The Cactus mini mix is characterised by the many variations in shape, size, colour and spines. They range from smaller roundish shapes to larger, elongated cacti. The spines serve for protection and help in retaining water in their dry environment. Some of these cacti bloom with beautiful, vibrant flowers, while others are more reserved in their appearance.

Care
Despite their resilience, the Cactus mini mix still requires specific care to thrive optimally. They need a lot of light, and although they do not require much water, a thorough watering when the soil is completely dry is still important. Overwatering can cause root rot, a common problem in cacti. During the summer months, these cacti benefit from weekly feeding. In the winter, when cacti typically experience their dormant period, water and feeding should be reduced.
