Seeds and All offer you a Premium Cactus Mix, selected from a large variety of species. The seeds are easy to germinate and growing them requires very little effort. Most make excellent potted plants, do very well in raised beds and rockeries and make fascinating landscaping features. They require well-drained sandy to gravel soil to perform at their best.  Cacti come in a wide range of shapes and sizes. Some grow to great size. Cactus flowers are large, and like the spines and branches arise from areoles. Many cactus species are night-blooming, as they are pollinated by nocturnal insects or small animals, principally moths and bats. Cacti range from small and round to pole-like and tall, such as the Saguaro.           Cacti are distinctive and unusual plants which have adapted to extreme arid environments, showing a wide range of anatomical and physiological features which conserve water. Their stems have expanded into green succulent structures containing the clorophyll necessary for life and growth, while the leaves have become the spines for which cacti are so well known. Cacti are believed to have evolved in the last 30 to 40 million years. Long ago, the Americas were joined to the other continents, but separated due to continental drift. Unique species in the New World must have developed after the continents had moved apart. Significant distance between the continents was only achieved in around the last 50 million years. This may explain why cacti are so rare in Africa; the continents had already separated when cacti evolved. Many succulent plants in both the Old and New World bear a striking resemblance to cacti, and are often called "cactus" in common usage. This is, however, due to parallel evolution; none of these are closely related to the Cactaceae.

Parodia is a genus of flowering plants in the cactus family Cactaceae. The genus is named after the Argentine botanist Lorenzo Raimundo Parodi who lived from 1895 to 1966. Flowers in all species arise from fuzzy buds, typically with bristles, at the apex. Flowers are cup-shaped and point straight up. They are easy to grow, have intriguing stems and spines and flower easily with brightly-coloured flowers. This fact in combination with their relatively small size, ensure that nearly all cactus growers will have some representative of this group. While advanced hobbyists may grow many of the various species and subspecies.           The genus has about 50 species, many of which have been transferred from Eriocactus, Notocactus and Wigginsia. They are native to the uplands of Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay and range from small globose plants to 1 meter tall columnar cacti. All are deeply ribbed and spiny, with single flowers at or near the crown. Some species produce offsets at the base and most are free flowering, with stunning blooms throughout the year. These cacti are perfect for rockeries, where they will give your garden splashes of colour or as pot plants on a sunny windowsill. Either way you are assured of many years of joy. Parodia leninghausii is a species of South American cactus commonly found as a houseplant. Common names include Lemon Ball, Golden Ball and Yellow Tower cactus. Botanist Karl Moritz Schumann named it after Wilhelm Lenninghaus (1845-1918), a native of North Rhine-Westphalia who, in the 1880s, left his hometown of Ennepetal and emigrated to Porto Alegre, Brazil, where he became Guillermo Lenninghaus, and collected cacti for the German grower Haage. Parodia leninghausii is native to the Rio Grande do Sul province in the south of Brazil. In those regions, winter nights are cold, with a light freeze. These cacti survive in these conditions because they are quite dry at that time.

Espostoa is a genus of columnar cacti, comprising 16 species known from the Andes of southern Ecuador and Peru. It is usually found at an altitude of between 800m and m. Its fruit is edible, sweet, and juicy. The genus is named after Nicolas E. Esposto, a renowned botanist from Lima. These candle-like cacti are covered with thorns and white hair. Only the older specimens can divide. In adulthood, a cephalium sometimes appears, similar to the Mexican genus Cephalocereus. They were discovered by Alexander von Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland in the early nineteenth century.           They are appreciated for their decorative qualities due to their white fleece. They can be propagated by seed. For full development they must be planted in the ground. Like all cacti, Espostoa requires a sunny location and well-drained soil. But in summer, it appreciates fertilizer and wetter conditions. Espostoa ritteri commonly known as Peruvian Old Man Cactus bears numerous spines forming a wool-like appearance. It is a dark-green columnar cactus having ribs and white roundish areoles. The spines are numerous forming a wool-like appearance. It normally has a dendriform to bushy shape, somewhat branched like a candelabra and usually covered in dense silky white hair, like cobwebs. The whiteish flowers that open at night are about 5cm long and appear on the cephalium.

The Weberbauerocereus genus, which is placed in the Cactaceae family, is named in honor of August Weberbauer - a researcher in the Peruvian Andes. Like many of the large columnar or tree -like cacti, the genus Weberbauerocereus is seldom cultivated and has seen little attention from researchers. As a result the future use of the name may be changed. Weberbauerocereus is a genus of ceroid cactus, considered to be intermediate between the genera Echinopsis and Cleistocactus. Native to Peru and northern Chile, the plants have fairly large, columnar stems that are either shrubby or may contain a distinct trunk.           Stems have numerous shallow ribs that are somewhat tuberculate with prominent woolly areoles. Spines are numerous and stout. Flowers are funnel-shaped and white or reddish. Floral tubes with scales and hairs. Weberbauerocereus johnsonii is a beautiful cactus. Few cacti have such persistently brilliant yellow spines, especially magnificent when backlit, as does this columnar beauty discovered in 1951 by famous nurseryman Harry Johnson on his second South American expedition. The plant eventually grows to tree-size proportions but even solitary stems, 7-9 cm in diameter, are worth cultivating for the colorful spines which can be either long or short. These cacti are perfect for rockeries, where they will give your garden structural height or as potted plants on a sunny patio. Either way you are assured of many years of joy.

The Stenocactus genus is placed in the Cactaceae family and comprises globular cacti with a characteristic wavy rib pattern, in place of straight ribs. Native to Mexico, the original genus included only about 10 species, although Hertrichocereus and Echinofossulocactus are now included in this group, expanding the number of species to about 30. It's not uncommon to see them identified only as " Stenocactus " when they're offered for sale. Besides their distinctive wavy ribs, these cacti also feature stiff and short spines. Younger plants lack the distinctive wavy ribs and have tubercles. These will develop into the typical ribs when the plant is older. Stenocactus species like bright sunlight and thrive in full sun and strong light.           Throughout the growing season (spring and summer) let the potting soil almost completely dry out between watering and then water thoroughly. In winter you should cut back watering altogether. A rich, fast-draining cactus mix is ideal. During the growing season, fertilize at half strength. Suspend feeding during the dormant winter period. These cacti are perfect for rockeries, where they will give your garden splashes of colour or as potted plants on a sunny windowsill. Either way you are assured of many years of joy. Stenocactus multicostatus for which Echinofossulocactus multicostatus is a synonym is one of the most variable Stenocactus species. Differing in spination, body shape and number of ribs they produce unusual shapes. Typically it has a variable number of ribs; typically about 50 to 100 ribs, but plants with up to 150 or more ribs have been reported. In early spring they produce gorgeous white blooms with violet to purple midveins.

  The Peruvian Torch is a favourite amongst Cacti collectors. Tolerant of a wide variety of conditions it can handle more water than most cacti making it a rather easy to grow specimen than most cacti. It can be grown either outdoors ot potted. It produces large white flowers.

Parodia roseolutea is a solitary globular cactus from southern South America. Parodia roseolutea grows up to 25cm in circumference and is nicely spined. It produces magnificent 7.5cm flowers in late spring. They are red to pink with a yellow throat. This plant seems to incorporate some of the features of both Parodia herteri and Parodia mammulosa. Both flower colour and spination seem to be midway between the two species. The plant can ultimately reach the size of Parodia herteri but it flowers at a much smaller size and withstands some winter coldness.
