Looking for a low-maintenance cactus that can add some charm to your indoor or outdoor space? Look no further than the Echinopsis oxygona (previously known as Echinopsis multiplex) native to South America! It is commonly known as the Easter Lily Cactus due to its large, white, lily-like flowers that bloom during the Easter season. It is also known as the easter lily plant or night-blooming cereus. It gets its botanical name from the Greek words "ehinus" (hedgehog) and "opsis" (spines and shapes).  

This fast-growing easter lily cactus has a ribbed stem that can grow up to 12 inches tall and 6 inches wide. It has a cylindrical, globular body that is light green in color and covered in white spines. With sweetly scented, funnel-shaped white, yellow, or pink flowers, these easter lily cactus bloom once a year around easter or early summer. It has very large, fragrant nocturnal flowers, and many plant lovers are willing to care for it all year for one or a few magical nights with exotic charm. On warm days in summer, the Echinopsis oxygona flowers bloom at dusk and wilt the following afternoon.  

It is a relatively rapidly growing species that will make large clumps given the best conditions. The easter lily cactus is extremely resistant to cultivation and easily propagated by offsets from the mother plant. This mat-forming easter lily cactus plant is sure to be a hit with both experienced gardeners and beginners alike.

Watering Needs

The Easter Lily cactus is a drought-tolerant plant that requires minimal watering but not too much moisture. Overwatering can cause root rot and other issues. The Echinopsis cactus should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely before watering again. During the growing season, which is typically in the spring and hot summer seasons (the blooming period), it should be watered once every 2–3 weeks.

Because there is much more sun exposure, even on a shaded porch, a potted Easter lily cactus kept outside typically requires more water than the same plant kept indoors.

In the winter months, the cactus plant should be watered even less frequently, about once a month. When watering the Easter Lily plant, it is important to use well-drained soil and a pot with drainage holes. The cactus should be watered until the soil is moist but not soaked. Any excess water should be allowed to drain out of the pot.

Light Requirements

The Easter Lily cactus requires bright full sunlight or partial shade to thrive. Native to warm locations, this cactus is used in bright, sunny conditions. However, prolonged direct sunlight can burn the Echinopsis cactus and cause damage. Therefore, it is best to place it in a location where it can receive bright light for most of the day. If you are growing the easter lily cactus indoors, a south-facing window is a good choice. 

If the Easter Lily cactus is not receiving enough light, it may become leggy and weak. It may also fail to flower. If this occurs, it is important to move the cactus to a brighter location. If the cactus is receiving too much light, the cactus may turn yellow or brown, and it may become dehydrated. In this case, the easter lily plants should be moved to a location with less direct sunlight. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Easter Lily cactus prefers well-draining potting soil that is slightly acidic. We believe the best option is to use Go to soil cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing media that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your cactus to thrive.The soil should not be too heavy or compact, as this can lead to issues with drainage and root rot. A pot with drainage holes is also important to ensure that excess water can drain out of the soil. 

During the growing season, which is typically in the spring, the easter lily cactus benefits from occasional fertilization as a portion of plant food. A balanced natural fertilizer (NPK) can be used once a year to encourage healthy growth and flowering. However, it is important not to over-fertilize the easter lily cactus, as this can lead to salt buildup in the soil and other issues. During the winter months, this cactus does not need to be fertilized, as it can cause stunted growth or other fungal diseases. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

The Echinopsis oxygona is hardy in USDA hardiness zones 8 to 11. This means that it can tolerate temperatures down to 25 degrees Fahrenheit and is resistant to light frost for short periods. If you live in a colder climate, the easter lily cactus should be grown in a container and brought indoors during the cold weather. 

In addition to its hardiness zone requirements, the easter lily cactus prefers warm temperatures and does best in temperatures between 65 and 74 °F. It also prefers low humidity, so it may not do well in areas with high humidity levels. 

With the help of the Echinopsis oxygona easter lily cactus, you'll start to spend less time maintaining your garden and more time taking in its beauty!

What is NOT to love about Lynda Barry?
Format: Paperback
I’ve been reading Lynda Barry since the 80s and am currently at work on a graphic novel, that I’m writing and illustrating. I have always believed in learning from the best and Barry has always been a favorite, from the creativity, recall and connections she makes with her work as well as with me (and I assume her other readers as well). This book delves into the connections of words and images, how to conjure and connect, especially with the whole creative vibe. She works with young people and the pipeline to that cerebral communication is appreciated and thought provoking as well, as my work will be geared to a younger audience. This is for anyone who interested in the process of sequential art, creating comics, characters, connecting with creative elements, it’s also a visually stunning book (again, the nerd in me, loved all the cross-references with the visual and other, using calligraphic and other historic, formal art elements along with the more personal character, visual creations and exercises. Thought-provoking and image inducing, indeed!

Lynda Barry is Awesome
Format: Kindle
This book is fantastic if you want to make comics by yourself or with a classroom. Barry packs in loads of experience teaching and making art. Her style of drawing is simple and straight forward. She uses a great method that empowers the reader to make art and share it. I want to be half the teacher Barry is.

This! Book! Rocks!
Format: Paperback
If you enjoy laughing, having fun with your friends and family, and doing cool stuff, you will love Lynda Barry's Making Comics. This is a thoughtful and complete recap of her live class at the University of Wisconsin, includes much of her substantial thought and philosophy on the role of image making in human evolution, and is full of her (and her students') amazing artwork; but it's also full of excessively FUN drawing exercises that are wonderful for sucky drawers as well as professional artists. We dig this book so bad!!! Best gift I've given myself in a million years!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe I had a little bit forgotten how much I! Love! Lynda! Barry!!!!! So if you wish you could go move to Wisconsin and take her class like I do, instead just save the planet the extra greenhouse gases and get this book instead and do the class at your kitchen table with your friends!!! Maybe also order it from your local groovy independent bookstore so you can stick it to the man!!!

Highly comical
Format: Paperback
This book is simply amazing. I have stopped, wondering about comics and begun mastering them. The author is always amazing. I’ve read most of her work and I can hardly highly recommend them. especially her novel Cruddy it was the best!
