Scientific Name Cereus repandus (L.) Mill.
Common Names Giant Club Cactus, Hedge Cactus, Apple Cactus, Peruvian Apple Cactus, Peruvian Apple, Peruvian Tree Cactus Synonyms Cactus repandus (basionym), Cereus peruvianus, Cactus peruvianus, Stenocereus peruvianus, Cereus grenadensis, Cereus margaritensis, Cereus remolinensis, Cereus atroviridis, Pilocereus repandus
Scientific Classification Family: Cactaceae Subfamily: Cactoideae Tribe: Cereeae Genus: Cereus
Description Cereus repandus is a large, erect, thorny columnar cactus with cylindrical gray-green to blue stems, up to 33 feet (10 m) tall and up to 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter. The nocturnal flowers, up to 6 inches (15 cm) long remain open for only one night. The fruits, known locally as “Pitaya” or Peruvian Apple are thornless, violet-red to yellow in color and up to 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter.
How to Grow and Care Like most cacti, Cereus are fairly low-maintenance and hardy. Make sure they receive enough water without becoming waterlogged, especially during the summer, and fertilize them for best results. If the roots have become black or overly soft, the cactus could be experiencing root rot – cut away the affected parts and replant. Like all cacti, give them lots of direct sunlight, especially during the summer. Well-drained soil is best, and most Cereus perform well in a soil that contains some organic material. Some recommend avoiding a soil that contains sphagnum moss, though – it can make the cactus vulnerable to root rot.

Scientific Name Hoya compacta C.M. Burton
Common Names Hindu Rope Plant, Hindu Rope, Hindu Rope Hoya, Indian Rope, Angel Rope, Wax Plant, Porcelain Flower, Krinkle Kurl Synonyms Hoya carnosa f. compacta, Hoya carnosa ‘Compacta’, Hoya compacta ‘Krinkle Kurl’ Scientific Classification Family: Apocynaceae Subfamily: Asclepiadoideae Tribe: Marsdenieae
Genus: Hoya Description Hoya compacta is draping succulent vine that produce clusters of star-shaped waxy flowers. The curly leaves grow close on the vine making it possible to miss new peduncles and buds until they are quite big. The leaves vary in size and color, but they can be described as curly H. carnosa leaves. The flowers are mostly pale pink and the white corona has a red ring in the middle. The flowers form almost round balls and you can find 30-50 flowers in an umbel. Each flower is up to 0.6 inch (1.5 cm) across. The flowers last about one week.
How to Grow and Care Hoya plants don’t ask for much, beyond the well-draining soil and the warm humid conditions that many tropical flowers crave. They don’t like wet feet or heavy soil, and as many grow as epiphytes in nature (similar to bromeliads and orchids). Give them at least a half day of sunshine, and bring them indoors when temperatures drop below 50 degrees F (10 degrees C).
When your Hoyas finishes blooming, leave the flower stalk, as it may produce new flowers. Removing the stalk forces the plant to produce a new stalk, which delays blooming and wastes the plant’s energy. They are light feeders, and a monthly drink of compost tea or dilute fish emulsion provides all the nutrition these tropicals need.

Scientific Name Sedum rupestre ‘Angelina’
Common Names Angelina Stonecrop, Golden Sedum Synonyms Sedum ‘Angelina’ Scientific Classification Family: Crassulaceae Subfamily: Sedoideae Tribe: Sedeae Subtribe: Sedinae Genus: Sedum
Description Sedum rupestre ‘Angelina’ is an evergreen, mat-forming, rapidly growing plant, up to 5 inches (12.5 cm) tall with a prostrate, creeping habit. Its needle-like, succulent foliage is lime green in spring that ages to a brilliant golden-yellow color that is topped off with clusters of vibrant yellow, star-shaped flowers in summer on up to 8 inches long stems. In fall the foliage takes on an orange hue.
How to Grow and Care When growing Sedum, keep in mind that Sedum plants need very little attention or care. They will thrive in conditions that many other plants thrive in, but will do just as well in less hospitable areas. They are ideal for that part of your yard that gets too much sun or too little water to grow anything else. A common name for Sedum is Stonecrop, due to the fact that many gardeners joke that only stones need less care and live longer.
Sedum is easily planted. For shorter varieties, simply laying the plant on the ground where you want it to grow is normally enough to get the Sedum plant started there. They will send out roots from wherever the stem is touching the ground and root itself. If you would like to further ensure that the plant will start there, you can add a very thin covering of soil over the plant. For taller Sedum varieties, you can break off one of the stems and push it into the ground where you would like to grow it.

Scientific Name Aloe vera (L.) Burm.f.
Common Names Aloe Vera, Medicinal Aloe, Barbados Aloe, Chinese Aloe, Indian Aloe, Medicine Plant, True Aloe, Burn Aloe, First Aid Plant, Bitter Aloe, Wand of Heaven, Miracle Plant, Savila Synonyms Aloe vulgaris, Aloe indica, Aloe barbadensis var. chinensis, Aloe elongata, Aloe vera var. littoralis, Aloe perfoliata var. vera, Aloe perfoliata var. barbadensis, Aloe flava, Aloe chinensis, Aloe barbadensis, Aloe lanzae
Scientific Classification Family: Xanthorrhoeaceae Subfamily: Asphodeloideae Genus: Aloe Description Aloe vera is a stemless or very short-stemmed succulent plant growing up to 40 inches (1 m) tall, spreading by offsets. The leaves are thick and fleshy, green to grey-green, with some varieties showing white flecks on the upper and lower stem surfaces. The margin of the leaf is serrated and has small white teeth. The flowers are produced in summer on a spike up to 35 inches (90 cm) tall, each flower being pendulous, with a yellow tubular corolla up to 1.2 inches (3 cm) long.
Hardiness USDA hardiness zone 9a to 11b: from 25 °F (−3.9 °C) to 50 °F (+10 °C). How to Grow and Care The first step in Aloe Vera care is to realize that this plant is a succulent. Like cacti, succulents do best in dry conditions. When growing Aloe Vera plants, plant them in a cactus potting soil mix or a regular potting soil that has been amended with additional perlite or building sand. Also, make sure that the pot has plenty of drainage holes. It cannot tolerate standing water.
One important thing in the care of Aloe Vera houseplants is that they have proper light. They need bright light, so they do best in south- or west-facing windows. Another important part of how to grow an Aloe Vera is to water the plant properly. The soil should be allowed to go completely dry before being watered.
Uses Aloe vera has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries. Native to North Africa, Southern Europe, and the Canary Islands, today it is grown in tropical climates worldwide.

Scientific Name Kalanchoe daigremontiana Raym.-Hamet & H. Perrier
Common Names Mother of Thousands, Alligator Plant, Devil’s Backbone, Mexican Hat Plant Synonyms Bryophyllum daigremontianum, Kalanchoe daigremontianum Scientific Classification Family: Crassulaceae Subfamily: Sedoideae Tribe: Kalanchoeae Genus: Kalanchoe
Description Kalanchoe daigremontiana is an upright succulent perennial, up to 3 feet (1 m) tall, with opposite, fleshy oblong-lanceolate, grey-green leaves, often spotted with brown-red and with a row of plantlets on each edge. The plantlets form roots while on the plant. The leaves reach up to 8 inches (20 cm) long and up to 1.2 inches (3 cm) wide. The flowers are tubular, greyish pink in color, up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) long.
Hardiness USDA hardiness zone 9b to 11b: from 25 °F (−3.9 °C) to 50 °F (+10 °C). How to Grow and Care Kalanchoes are not particularly hard to grow, and the flowering varieties are highly rewarding for their colorful and long-lasting flowers. They prefer bright, sunny locations, especially in the summer growing season. During the winter, consider a south-facing window. Water moderately throughout the summer and reduce watering in the winter. Let the soil surface dry out between waterings, and in the winter, the plant can almost dry out. Watch the fleshy leaves for signs of water distress. They prefer warmth. Do not let fall below 55ºF (12.7ºC). An ordinary potting soil mix is fine. Feed bi-weekly in the summer with a liquid fertilizer, or use slow-release pellets.

Scientific Name Echinocereus pentalophus (DC.) Lem.
Common Names Lady Finger Cactus, Dog Tail, Alicoche, Devil’s Fingers Synonyms Cereus pentalophus, Echinocereus pentalophus subsp. pentalophus, Echinocereus procumbens Scientific Classification Family: Cactaceae Subfamily: Cactoideae Tribe: Pachycereeae Genus: Echinocereus
Description Echinocereus pentalophus – Lady Finger Cactus is a mat-forming cactus with many crowded finger-like stems. The narrow green stems, up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter, have 5 (sometimes 4) ribs, with evenly-spaced clusters of 4 to 7 short white or yellowish spines, one of which is a little longer and more central. The plant branches profusely, the stems growing sideways along or close to the ground, becoming several feet long, and they produce many large pink flowers up to 6 inches (15 cm) across, in late spring, followed by green fruits.
How to Grow and Care If you can successfully grow other globular cactus, you can most likely grow Echinocereus well. One of the key factors in success with these is avoiding any hint of wet soil. Because their root systems are weak, they are especially prone to root rot, which will eventually kill your plant. Otherwise, they thrive on a program of strong, bright light; slight water; and a steady diet of light fertilizer. Echinocereus is vulnerable to mealybugs and aphids. Echinocereus are slow growing cactus that should only need repotting every other year or so. You can prolong the time to repotting by removing plantlets and potting them up in their own pots. When repotting a cactus, carefully remove it from its pot and knock away any clumped soil.

Scientific Name Pereskiopsis diguetii (F. A. C. Weber) Britton & Rose
Common Names Alfilerillo (Spanish), Cola De Diablo (Spanish), Nopaleta (Spanish), Patilon (Spanish) Synonyms Opuntia diguetii (basionym), Pereskiopsis spathulata, Pereskia spathulata, Opuntia spathulata, Pereskiopsis velutina, Grusonia diguetii Scientific Classification Family: Cactaceae Subfamily: Opuntioideae Tribe: Cylindropuntieae Genus: Pereskiopsis
Description Pereskiopsis diguetii is a unique, densely shrubby cactus, commonly used for grafting the seedlings of other slow growing species, such Peyote, Astrophytum and Ariocarpus. Branched from base, growing up to 6.5 feet (2 m) tall, with woolly areoles, 1 or 2 whitish spines, up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) long, and elliptic-ovate, long pointed, wedge-shaped at the base, up to 2 inches (5 cm) long. Flowers are yellow, up to 3 inches (7.6 cm) across. Fruits are top-shape to ovoid, orange to yellow, sometimes becoming red, up to 2.8 inches (7 cm) long, and up to 0.6 inch (1.6 cm) in diameter.
How to Grow and Care Growing Pereskiopsis is not difficult at all. In fact the plant is quite tolerant of many mistakes you might throw at it, but there are some considerations you must take before planting your new grafting stock. Depending on the number you have and how you will want to display them will dictate how they are planted. Another consideration is whether you received them as cuttings or as fully rooted plants. A tray that does not separate the different plants is perfectly acceptable. However to make grafting easier as well as future cuts, it’s best to use a cell that separates the plants, one per cell.
