Simple Care Guidelines for Rapid Columnar Growth

Caring for your San Pedro “Lost Tag” is a remarkably straightforward, low-maintenance experience for plant lovers of all skill levels. To maintain its thick stem diameter, prevent stretching, and foster deep green stem coloration, this sun-loving native thrives best in high, bright indirect light to full direct sunlight. It comes established in our custom, fast-draining mineral mix, expertly formulated to let excess water flush away from the root system instantly. Follow a strict soak and dry watering routine, saturating the potting medium completely only when the mix has dried out 100% from top to bottom, making sure the roots stay dry between cycles.
