Cotton Ball Cactus

Cotton Ball Cactus

Small, adorable, and full of charm. The Cotton Ball Cactus gets its name from the soft white fuzz that covers its rounded shape, giving it a fluffy, cloud-like look that’s hard not to love.

Its compact size makes it perfect for desks, windowsills, shelves, or any sunny spot that could use a little personality.

Like most cacti, it’s happiest with plenty of sunshine and well-draining soil. Keep watering to a minimum, and it’ll thrive with very little effort.
