Let's grow the The Cereus peruvianus in a luminous place, with direct sunlight. Succulent plants can also be cultivated in a cold green house, with temperatures which must be below 5°C for many species, but in this case it’s necessary to keep them totally dry.Let's avoid exposing the The Cereus peruvianus to temperatures below 15°C. During late Spring we can place them outdoors, possibly sheltered by the wind.
Care Cereus peruvianus
When growing these plants tend to go up, developing very little in width, and they tend to have a columnar development. Cereus peruvianus Is an evergreen; during autumn iIt assumes a greenwhite colouring; the adult specimens are large in size and reach 1,5 m high. These plants are succulent .
Feed Cereus peruvianus
In this period of the year, let’s remember to enrich the soil of our succulent plants, using, every 15-20 days, a specific fertilizer; fertilizers for succulent plants must be poor in nitrogen to avoid them from producing too much vegetation which would be easily attacked by fungal diseases.
Irrigation Cereus peruvianus
We suggest watering the The Cereus peruvianus every 4-5 weeks with 1-2 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water. Let’s remember that the succulent plants can withhold water inside their materials, therefore they need to be watered only when the weather is hot.
Adversity Cereus peruvianus
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.
Substrate Cereus peruvianus
Grow in a soft and sandy, very well drained soil.
