Effortless Indoor Greenery with Mixed Cacti

Add a touch of the desert to your home with our selection of mixed cactus houseplants.

These cacti are supplied in practical 10.5cm grow pots—perfect for displaying on your windowsill, office desk, or conservatory shelf.

Why Choose Cacti?

• Minimal Watering: Cacti store water in their thick stems, allowing them to thrive for weeks between watering—ideal if you travel or forget to water regularly.
• Low Maintenance: These hardy plants require very little attention and are well-suited to both novice gardeners and plant enthusiasts.
• Sunlight Lovers: Place your cacti in a bright spot with plenty of natural light; a south- or west-facing window is ideal.
• Natural Air Purifiers: Like most houseplants, cacti can help improve indoor air quality.

Caring for Your Cactus Mix

• Watering: Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings; water sparingly during winter months.
• Light: Needs at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight per day for best growth.
• Soil: Use free-draining cactus compost or add sand/grit to standard potting mix.
• Temperature: Prefers warm conditions (18–25baC); protect from frost and cold draughts.
• Pots: Supplied in 10.5cm pots; repot every couple of years to refresh soil and encourage healthy roots.

Design Ideas & Plant Companions

• Create a striking display by grouping your cacti together on a sunny shelf or windowsill.
• Pair with other drought-tolerant succulents like Aloe vera or Echeveria for a varied look.
• Add decorative gravel or pebbles on top of the soil for an attractive finish.
