Firesticks Pencil Cactus
The Firesticks Pencil Cactus is a native of arid South Africa, this striking succulent plant is an ideal specimen plant for containers. Multiple fire-red stems, resembling small pencils or sticks, grow from the base of the plant.
Low maintenance and fast-growing, however, the sap can be irritating. Please be cautious when handling!
The red stems often show shades of pink, orange or yellow and the color is more vivid during the cooler months and when grown in bright sun. Grow in full sun and well-drained cactus soil. Be careful when pruning because the sap from the Cactus Firestick can irritate the skin.
