  1. Vejo fotos de cactos floridos e gostaria de saber , já que são de ambientes desérticos eles aguentam bem o sol pleno?
    para florirem?

    bom fim de semana.

    1. Hi Simone,

      As with most of the desert cacti, they need a dry resting period during the cold times of the year and bright son with adequate water during the warm, growing season. They are sensitive to over watering.

      Hope you have a great week.

      Luther
