Slow Growing and Long Living

Peyote prefers well-draining cactus soil and should be watered sparingly. Avoid overwatering, as this can damage the roots. The cactus thrives in bright indirect light and warm temperatures.

Basic care guidelines:
Use well-draining cactus soil
Water moderately and allow soil to dry
Provide bright indirect sunlight
Keep in a warm and dry environment
Protect from frost and excessive moisture
