Moon Cactus seasonal highlights — a year in review

I've been growing Moon Cactus for a full year now and want to capture what each season offered. complete dormancy in winter with no watering was the clear high point — everything you're told about Moon Cactus at that time of year is true. But the plant has something to offer in every season, which I hadn't expected.

remarkable drought tolerance once established is consistent throughout the year, which is one of its real strengths. I've settled on a dry garden rockery or gravel bed as the ideal position. protecting from frost below -5°C even for hardy varieties was the lesson I took into next year. scarring from cold water splash on the skin is the only thing that interrupted the enjoyment. Otherwise: excellent.
