I like the article This plant in the spring, summer, autumn, winter assumes a pink colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 30 cm high. It keeps its leaves in the winter. The ramifications of these plants tend to develop downwards. The Climbing cactus is a succulent plant. Fertilize Climbing cactus
During the beautiful season it’s good to enrich the soil of our succulent plants; we advise using a fertilizer rich in potassium and phosphorous, but poor in nitrogen, because this chemical element doesn’t help the development of succulent plants, making them too soft and full of water. Light Climbing cactus
The Climbing cactus is a pretty delicate plant, which fears minimum temperatures below 15°C; during late spring it can be cultivated outdoors. It prefers partially shady locations, where it can be reached by the solar rays only during the coolest hours of the day.A great part of succulent plants can endure low temperatures, even below 5°C, but if we’re growing them in a harsh climate we must avoid watering. Water Climbing cactus
We suggest watering these plants with 1-2 glasses of water only when the soil is perfectly dry, generally it needs to be watered about every 4-5 weeks . Let's avoid to exceed. Succulent plants can also endure long periods of time without watering; usually as the climate gets colder they need less water, while during the summer months they should be watered abundantly . Pests Climbing cactus
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden. Mold Climbing cactus
These succulent plants need to be located in an accentuated and drained substratum. We suggest repotting every 2-3 years.
