Cleistocactus winteri aka Golden Rat Tail Live Cactus Growing in 4 Inch

Cleistocactus winteri, commonly known as the "Golden Rat Tail Cactus," is a striking and unique cactus species native to South America, particularly regions in Bolivia and Argentina. This cactus is known for its long, trailing stems adorned with vibrant golden spines, making it a popular choice among cactus enthusiasts and collectors.
The Golden Rat Tail Cactus is a trailing or pendant cactus that produces long, cylindrical stems that can grow up to several feet in length. These stems are segmented and covered in golden-yellow to reddish-brown spines, giving them a striking appearance.
The spines are usually dense and can give the plant a fuzzy or furry appearance, which is why it's often likened to a rat's tail.
In the spring and early summer, Cleistocactus winteri may produce small, tubular, red or orange flowers that bloom along the stems. These flowers can be quite attractive and provide a delightful contrast to the golden spines.
Provide Cleistocactus winteri with plenty of bright, indirect sunlight or partial sun. It thrives in well-lit conditions but should be protected from intense, direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day.
The Golden Rat Tail Cactus is a striking addition to any collection of cacti and succulents. Its unique appearance, trailing growth habit, and colorful spines make it a favorite among cactus enthusiasts. It is often grown in hanging baskets, containers, or as a ground cover in suitable climates, adding a touch of beauty and interest to indoor and outdoor gardens alike.
