Grow in a bright light position in a cactus/succulent potting mix. 

Water when the soil has totally dries out. Keep the soil even drier during late autumn and winter when a Monkey Cactus needs to “rest” for a few months - this dormant period is necessary for it to bloom well. 

It’s hard to believe, but a Monkey Tail Cactus can survive temperatures below freezing.

Unlike many types of cactus, Monkey’s Tail Cactus is not edible. Its flesh is toxic.
