29.99 €
Darya Pozharova is a cactus grower, participant in national plant exhibitions, and author of a popular blog about these prickly pets, where she discusses all aspects of caring for them. Her collection includes over 5,000 mature plants, including rare desert cacti.
We tend to think of cacti as the most undemanding plants, capable of surviving in any conditions. But the truth is, these amazing creatures often perish from our "care": overwatering, improper soil, and insufficient light. Cacti are more than just spiky balls on a windowsill; they are complex organisms with specific needs, worthy of attention and understanding.
You hold in your hands a detailed and honest guide to caring for cacti at home—from the first purchase to flowering, wintering, repotting, and even grafting. The book examines common mistakes, myths, diseases, and ways to save plants. Step-by-step instructions, checklists, and tables will help both beginners and seasoned hobbyists. You'll also learn which cacti bloom in winter, how to adapt foreign plants to our climate, and the meaning of mysterious field numbers.
After reading this book, your relationship with your prickly pets will reach a new level—from anxious uncertainty to conscious care and a professional approach.
