We love pickles! At Sprouts HQ we are definitely team gherk-in then gherk-don't, and whilst we wouldn't recommend eating this one we appreciate the effort of looking pickly.

Also known as a Pickle Cactus, this plant isn't part of the cati family. When it comes to care you can treat it the same way you would most succulents and it should get on fine. 

Notes 

  • Allow the soil to try out between waterings
  • Ensure good drainage 
  • Place in full sun
  • Pet-safe - non toxic but be wary of the prickles
