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.

Polaskia is a genus of two tree -like cactus species, placed in the Cactaceae family. It is named after the American amateur botanist, Charles Polaski. Both species grows to 5 meters in height. Both present primitive characteristics, but Polaskia chichipe is nearer to Myrtillocactus while Polaskia chende is nearer to Stenocereus. The genus is found in the Southern Mexican states of Puebla and Oaxaca. They are columnar cacti which branches as it ages with many branches on a short trunk. Stems are ribbed with fairly shallow spaces between ribs. Areoles are spaced 2 or 3 cm apart along the ribs. Spines are short and stout, numbering 8-10 radials and one central. Spines may not be present at all - especially on mature plants.  Flowers are widely-opened cups of pinkish white or yellow-green - with or without spines. The fruits are small fleshy berries. They are considered fairly easy to grow and germinate freely from seed. 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. Polaskia chichipe is a columnar cactus, cultivated for its edible fruits known as Chichituna, Chichipe or Chichibe. It is also grown for its valuable branches which, when dried make excellent fuel wood. Plants under cultivation have larger and sweeter fruits and a much longer period of fruit production. The flowers are self-compatible so you would only need one plant for it to produce fruits. Polaskia chichipe is a columnar tree-like cactus with many curved branches, up to 5 m tall. It has a few taxonomic synonyms including Cereus chichipe, Lemaireocereus chichipe, Myrillocactus chichipe, Cereus mixtecensis and Lemaireocereus mixtecensis. Give it good drainage and use open and free draining mineral compost that allows the roots to breath. They like only a short winter's rest and should be kept almost completely dry during the winter months.  If the soil is allowed to be dry for too long root loss could occur but equally the same result would transpire if the plants are both wet and cold. From spring onwards the plant will begin to grow and watering should be increased gradually until late spring when the plant should be in full growth.

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.

Gasteria is a genus of 23 species of succulent plants indigenous to South Africa with all except one being endemic to South Africa. Closely related genera include Aloe, Astroloba and Haworthia. The genus name Gasteria is named for its stomach-shaped flowers. In Greek, gaster, means belly, and alludes to the swollen base of the flower. The genus is part of the family Asphodeloideae. Common names include cow-tongue cactus, lawyer's tongue, mother-in-law's tongue and ox-tongue. Gasteria species are grown in well-drained, sandy soils in light shade. Gasteria species thrive in cultivation both indoors and outdoors, used as potted plants or in outdoor rockeries and are tolerant of a wide range of soils and habitats. The flowers attract birds to the garden during spring. Germination usually occurs within 8 days but may take as long as one month depending on the species. With their ability to grow under lower light conditions they are easily grown and maintained in cultivation. Gasterias are used in various traditional medicines. In the Eastern Cape Gasteria excelsa and Gasteria croucheri are occasionally put on the roofs of homes to stop lightning from striking the house. There are also reports that the plants are used during faction fighting in a belief that it will make them invisible to their enemies.

Gasteria bicolor var. liliputana commonly known as Dwarf Gasteria in English and Klein-beestong in Afrikaans is a beautiful endemic species which has a large area of distribution in the Eastern Cape. This is a miniature clustering variety. The little plants boast leaves only 3-5 cm long. There is another variety within this species named Gasteria bicolor var. bicolor which has much larger leaves than Gasteria bicolor var. liliputana.
