Description
A Stately Addition to your Cactus Collection
The Peruvian Apple Cactus is easy to grow, and needs very little TLC to thrive indoors or out. As the name implies, the plant originates in the deserts of South America. This succulent is slow growing, but will reward you with pristine white flowers throughout the summer. Lucky gardeners may even enjoy the fruit, which some say tastes like a cross between an overripe apple and a melon.
The plant prefers plenty of sunlight and fast-draining cactus soil. Water often during hot summer months, less frequently during winter. If grown outdoors, the plant can reach up to 30 ft. in height. If you chose it for inside your home, make sure to place it in a spot that gets plenty of light.

I wanted a cactus to fill a sunny spot in my dining room and the apple cactus looked like it would fit. It exceeded my expectations! There are two in the pot one is almost two feel tall and the other is just under a foot tall. This is my fourth Plantvine purchase, all of the plants have arrived well packed and healthy.

How often should I water it initially? I killed one of these from another vendor but it was just a cutting.

I got the most beautiful cactus but unfortunately it got broken in transit. The Plantvine team promptly sent me a replacement. Their customer service is exceptional.

When placing the order, I asked, if possible, for a specific look of the cactus. I could not be happier with the one I received! Ordering another. Thanks so much!
