Update

Just a growth update. Notice the bamboo stick, if you look at my other reviews on this cactus you can see how much it grew. Notice the dates. I cut off 3 shoots to give as gifts to family members. I'm sure this summer it will grow much more and faster. Can't wait to see how many flowers I ger and I hope to get fruit.

Office Decor

I purchased a 4.5-foot and a 2-foot cactus. I was inspired by a plant shop I visited, which I thought was highly overpriced. I'm so glad I found Rooted! This has uplifted our outdoor area, and I'm hoping we get some blooms soon.

PERUVIAN APPLE CACTUS 🌵

What a difference a year makes! I love this cactus!

About a year ago, I purchased a 3-footer. I was apprehensive because this would be the first time that I had purchased one so large without roots. I followed directions to a tee.

It is housed both indoors and outdoors here in Illinois. As you can see, it has progressed. It is a lot larger than when I received it, growing vertically, and it also shot off a branch that started out as the size of the average knuckle and then shot up to over a foot itself.

Beautiful!

What a beautiful cactus! The shipping was super fast, and our new 4 1/2 foot cactus came nicely packaged and ready to pot. Very very healthy looking, and such an affordable price. Definitely recommend this place, and if you're on the fence about this purchase I say go for it! A cactus this size in a plant shop would be well over $250.
