_Posted by Becplants on 2024-03-28_

I have about 4” baby cactuses (started last year), and my mature cactus plant that stays right next to the pot edge. The other plant in the larger pot went to cactus heaven quite awhile back. I’d like to repot and combine these at some point. What recommendations do you have regarding this? Thanks for your help. 🪴

How do you propagate them?

I cut several 2 leaf sections and put them in fresh cactus soil. Then watered them frequently. They are in a shallow pot. They’ve done well.
