Beautiful coloring on a nice fat n healthy cutting…. just a few montha old now but has rooted and grown a few offshoots! Fairly decent grower in terms of speed and hearty to heavy sun exposure. :) I’ll check back in when we get some flowers and fruit! DEFINITELY recommend this seller for a huge variety of your night blooming cereus wants and needs!
