Hatiora salicornioides (Mistletoe Cactus)

Hatiora salicornioides, commonly known as the Mistletoe Cactus or the Dancing Bones plant, is a succulent grown for its amazing foliage. It produces delicate green stems that are heavily branched which results in a somewhat tangled appearance. Small, yellow flowers are often produced at the stem tips during spring. It typically grows with a ball shape to 30 cm tall and the same wide. Hatiora salicornioides is commonly grown indoors as a potted plant but can be planted outdoors around outdoor living areas such as pools, or used anywhere the architectural properties this plant affords can be appreciated.

How to Care for Your Cactus Plants

Once your cactus plant arrives, care is simple. Most cacti prefer well-drained soil, bright indirect or filtered sunlight, and occasional watering—especially during the warmer months. They thrive in pots with drainage holes and require very infrequent fertilising. Remember to let the soil dry out between waterings, as overwatering is the most common mistake with these drought-loving plants.
