Title: Cacti Planted Right-side Up?
Post by: Frog Pajamas on February 15, 2015, 11:21:13 PM

I think they're all planted correctly, but if I could get a double-check I'd appreciate it. Two pics each of four cacti. 1 and 2 are the same plant, 3 and 4, etc.

They all look good except the last two pics, they might be upside down but honestly I'm no cacti expert... better off waiting until someone like HCC takes a look at the pics

If they're cut on both ends I don't think it matters which end you stick in the ground...though I'm no cacti expert either.

They all look good to me, and the placement can affect the plant.  I've seen upside down plants just stop growing and rot for some reason, but I've also seen them continue growing. They just pup all weird like upside down almost and then curve upright.

They all look oriented correctly!
