Dogtail cactus in decorative pot (Selenicereus)
Dog tail cactus is an epiphytic cactus with long, spiny, segmented branches. A fast-growing, vinelike cactus that is relatively easy to care for.
Like most cacti, your Dog Tail Cactus will prefer full sun if you're growing indoors or dappled, partial sun outside. They like heat, humidity, a fast-draining soil or potting mix in a container with good drainage.
Epiphytic cacti like more water than other cactus species, and will need more regular watering during the summer months. Making sure the soil or cactus mix dries out completely in between watering, however, is crucial—excessive watering results in root rot. If your cactus doesn't receive enough water, it can start to produce a disproportionate amount of less healthy aerial roots.
