After a long hiatus from CP collection and care, I've decided to get back into it. I did a lot of research and across this plant, and its supposed love of dry, hot summers and non-freezing winters. I'm very intrigued about it as it appears to literally be the only CP that has a chance of growing outside here.
One thing I've learned about Vegas though is that it puts those tolerances to the ultimate test. Some things that grow in Arizona, like your traditional tall green desert cacti for example, seem to stumble here.
Has anyone attempted to grow this plant in Vegas? If so, how well did it do? Did you grow it from seed or an established plant? Were any there variances in needs and care from the general growing knowledge and instructions on them?
Thanks!
