Care:

Pincushion Cacti are desert plants that prefer full or bright sun. However, they are also extremely hardy plants and can withstand harsh conditions. Water sparingly - only when the soil is completely dry and make sure there is lots of drainage in the pot. Move it to a cooler and shadier spot and stop watering completely during winter months to encourage flowering in the spring.

Pet Friendly:

Yes

Soil & Fertilizer:

A balanced fertilizer of 10-10-10 is best for mammillaria cacti every 2-4 weeks in the spring and summer. Make sure to provide a well draining soil that incorporates rocks, sand, bark, etc. to mimic a natural environment.
