Crazy cacti growth in 4 years 🤩 can’t wait to see how big it gets this summer. It was about 5” tall when I first got it now it’s about 3ft and grew arms!

I love his little crutches ❤️

😂 I never thought of it like that! I did that to transport to a new place and then the wind sometimes makes me nervous so they keep him sturdy. I’m going to repot before summer so that hopefully 🤞 this guy can lose his crutches 🩼

That’s awesome!! I’ve never had a cactus before, but now I’m curious!

This one is a blue candle cactus/blue myrtle cactus. I will say it loves being outside. It does much better in full sun, but I bring it in for the winter.
