The Spiral Cactus, known as Cereus forbesii 'spiralis'is prized for its tall, columnar stems that naturally twist into a mesmerizing spiral pattern. Each stem grows upright, with a ribbed surface and striking blue-green color, adding both texture and elegance.

This fast-growing spiral cactus can grow up to 16 feet tall and about 5 inches wide, creating an impressive vertical presence.

The funnel-shaped flowers of spiral cacti bloom in late spring and early summer. These stunning waxy blooms open up only at night but linger no longer than 24 hours, giving them the nickname “Night-blooming cereus”.You'll be amazed by their dazzling pinkish-white to red-colored petals that will make your heart skip a beat or two.

These majestic night-blooming cereus originated all the way from Brazil back in the day. Around 1980, some brave souls took cuttings from the original cereus cactus and brought them over to Europe. Since then, these extraordinary night-blooming cacti have mesmerized people worldwide through seed breeding, cloning, and large purple fruits. For this reason, these are considered to be expensive cacti. 

When and How to Water Your Spiral Cactus 

The Spiral Cactus is highly drought-tolerant, perfectly adapted to arid climates where rainfall is scarce. Its thick, ribbed stems store moisture efficiently, allowing the plant to endure long dry spells without harm. The spiral cactus prefers watering once every 2-3 weeks in spring and summer, and once every 4-6 weeks in fall and winter.

In spring and summer, during its active growing season, water your Spiral Cactus deeply but infrequently about once every 2–3 weeks. Always ensure that the soil is completely dry before watering again; the top 1–2 inches of soil should feel dry to the touch. Overwatering can easily lead to root rot, as the plant’s roots are sensitive to excess moisture. In hotter months, if you notice the cactus starting to wrinkle or lose firmness, that’s a sign it’s time for a good soak.

In the fall and winter months, the Spiral Cactus enters dormancy, slowing its growth and water usage. During this period, water very sparingly once every 4–6 weeks or even less, depending on your climate. It’s often best to skip watering entirely unless the cactus shows visible signs of dehydration, such as slight shriveling. 

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your Spiral Cactus 

When growing indoors, the Spiral Cactus thrives in bright, direct sunlight ideally near a south- or west-facing window where it can receive at least 5–6 hours of direct light daily.

If your home doesn’t receive enough natural sunlight, especially in rooms with north-facing windows. These lights mimic natural sunlight and help maintain healthy growth and vibrant color.

Rotate the pot occasionally so all sides of the cactus receive even exposure and develop its characteristic spiral symmetry.

When grown outdoors, the Spiral Cactus performs best in full sun, where it receives a minimum of 6 hours of direct light per day. However, in extremely hot or desert-like climates, it benefits from light afternoon shade to prevent sun scorch on young or newly planted specimens. Choose a location with good air circulation and well-draining soil to reduce the risk of rot and fungal problems. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The spiral cactus favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well, and should be fertilized (NPK) once a year in spring. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and, most likely, root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally, use our Go to soil cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing media that contains over 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your night-blooming cereus cactus to thrive. 

Natural fertilizers with a maximum ratio of 5-10-5 that is higher in phosphorus than nitrogen also last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage cereus plant health and nutrient absorption. So, skip those harsh chemicals and give your blooming cereus some love with some awesome organic fertilizer!  

Hardiness Zones & More 

In the United States, the spiral cactus is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii, then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 10-11

In these regions, it can be grown outdoors year-round, enjoying temperatures between 65°F and 90°F. While it can briefly tolerate temperatures down to 40°F, exposure to frost or freezing conditions can cause permanent damage to the stems.

If you live in cooler regions, it’s best to grow the Spiral Cactus in containers so it can be moved indoors during the colder months. Ensure that the cactus is kept in a dry, sheltered spot when nighttime temperatures drop below 50°F. 

How to Grow Best Spiral Cacti Indoors

The Cereus forbesii 'spiralis' thrives indoors in temperatures between 65 and 85°F and humidity levels around 40-50%. To ensure optimal growth, place the cactus in a location with bright, indirect sunlight and water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

Wildlife – Spiral Cactus Attracts the Following Friendly Pollinators

The spiral cactus is known to attract a variety of pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds due to its bright flowers and sweet nectar. These pollinators play a crucial role in the ecosystem by aiding in the reproduction of plants and ensuring biodiversity.

According to ASPCA, the Cereus forbesii is not toxic to humans and animals. Because spines are sharp, it is best to keep them out of the reach of pets and young children. But don't be intimidated by its bold appearance - this night-blooming cactus is easy to care for and can thrive in a variety of environments.

How to Propagate Your Spiral Cactus

To propagate your spiral cactus, you can use stem cuttings. Simply cut a healthy stem from the cactus and allow it to callous over for a few days before planting it in well-draining soil. Water sparingly until roots develop, and then gradually increase watering as the plant establishes itself.

The Bottom Line

Overall, the Spiral Cactus (Cereus forbesii ‘Spiralis’) is a truly captivating plant that combines sculptural beauty with remarkable resilience. Its twisting, spiral-shaped stems make it a striking focal point in any garden or indoor collection, while its low-water needs and heat tolerance make it perfect for drought-prone regions. Whether grown in a pot or directly in the ground, this cactus thrives with minimal care, just plenty of sunlight, well-draining soil, and infrequent watering.

Chuckit medium rebound balls
Size: Medium
My 8 month old German shepherd dog loves these balls. They are easy to throw, they bounce great, they are very chewable! She keeps one in her mouth most of the time. It satisfies her need to chew and she does not chew other things. She drops it in the water and lets the hole fill up and drinks that way. The only problem that has caused is suction in her mouth and difficulty in dislodging it for her. However, she would be lost without it!

These are definitely indestructible
Size: Medium
Both of my dogs can destroy a ball in a matter of minutes if I let them play with them (supervised) as is. Well not with these balls. They are the ONLY ones I have found that are 100% indestructible. Please only let your dogs play with these as a toy when supervised though. They go really far when throwing them, so both dogs get a good amount of running and exercise with these. I also bought these because they have the hole in the middle of the ball which is very important in the event that a dog gets one stuck at the back of their throat. This allows them to breath unlike those without this hold. It's an unlikely event, but as dog owners, we all need to be aware of this and educate ourselves on what to do if this SHOULD happen. This isn't a scare tactic, nor a reflection of this particular brand, it can happen with any type of ball. My two dogs are about 45ish lbs and the size is perfect for them, I don't want anything smaller than this. They love them. There is no annoying squeak. Really easy to wash after use. Some balls take forever to get the slimy saliva off, but these don't.

Love these spoons!
Material Type: Plastic
Have ordered these spoons a couple times over the past few years. They really are sturdy and great quality I just hate that since the pandemic they went from $13 for a box of 1000 spoons to $27 but like everything else around us, the price has risen astronomically! Anywho, we’ve used them for Thanksgiving, Christmas and everything in between. My daughter uses them every night to scoop out cat food like someone else mentions. We have two cats and we don’t want to dirty up a spoon ever night for their nightly feeding when we divide a can of kitty food between them. I’ve used the spoons to mix resin, paints among other crafts and they’ve always held up without bending. Truly their worth the price but man it hurts the pocket when everything we buy right now has doubled to tripled in price now! (Even that dad-limb cat food! Lol) But if you can swing the cost I can promise you it’s worth it. They hold up well for hot soups and those big scoops of banana pudding like mine that is heavy! I’ve bought their forks once and they are just as good but we go through spoons so much more around my house.
