Acanthocereus tetragonus 'Fairytale Castle', commonly known as the Fairy Castle Cactus, is a striking miniature cactus variety that features columnar stems resembling the turrets of a castle. Each stem is ribbed, with spines emerging along the ridges, and they range in colour from vibrant green to deeper shades as they mature. This slow-growing cactus forms clusters of stems over time, creating a dense, architectural display that makes it particularly suitable for small pots and indoor settings.

Despite its whimsical appearance, 'Fairytale Castle' is a hardy plant that requires minimal maintenance. Its compact growth habit and tolerance for a range of indoor conditions make it a good choice for cactus enthusiasts of all experience levels. Though it rarely flowers indoors, under ideal conditions, mature specimens may produce small, white, night-blooming flowers.

Native to

Acanthocereus tetragonus is native to Central and South America, as well as parts of the southern United States. In the wild, it grows in arid and semi-arid regions, often thriving in sandy or rocky soils.

Water

Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out thoroughly between watering. During spring and summer, water once every 3–4 weeks, depending on light and temperature. Reduce watering in autumn and winter when the plant enters dormancy. Overwatering is a common cause of root rot, so ensure the pot has excellent drainage.

Light

This cactus prefers bright, indirect light but can adapt to direct sunlight. Position it near a south- or west-facing window for best results. Insufficient light can lead to stretched or weakened growth, so consider supplementing with a grow light if natural light is limited.

Humidity

The Fairy Castle Cactus thrives in low humidity environments typical of most indoor spaces, usually between 30–50%. Additional humidity is not necessary, making it easy to care for in typical UK homes.

Temperature

Maintain temperatures of 18–26°C for optimal growth. The cactus can tolerate cooler conditions, down to about 10°C, but it should be protected from frost and cold draughts. Avoid placing it near windows or doors during the winter months where temperatures might drop suddenly.

"I ordered Christian fairy tales on the internet and they sent me Hans Christian Andersen ones by mistake!"---Ned Flanders
Format: Paperback
As was first done with "Simpsons Comics Hit The Road," "Simpsons Comics Get Some Fancy Book Learnin'" actually follows the theme of the title and cover art. All the comics have the Simpsons characters portraying figures in literature from Greek Mythology to Shakespeare. The longer comics are very well done but some of the shorter ones at the end fall flat. Still, I enjoyed this change of pace from the usual Simpsons comics. It offers a very clever use of characters. "Greek To Me"--Homer plays, well, Homer (the Greek poet) who tells four stories to a gathering of children. The first is "The Labors of Hercules" with Bart as Hercules. He only completed 10, but hey, 10 out of 12 is a B+ which is the best grade Bart ever got. In the second story, Homer is Hades who abducts Marge...er, Persephone...and is taken to court over it. In the third story, Selma is Medusa and Perseus (Bart) has to cut of her head or face 100 years detention. Finally, Homer tells a string of Aesop's Fables like "The Fox and the Grapes," "The Tortoise and the Hare," and--my favorite--"The Ant and the Grasshopper" where Homer is the grasshopper and Flanders is a hilarious-looking ant! There are a lot of clever lines in this one, especially Barney as Oedipus. "Pandora, Jr."--A 5-page comic with Lisa explaining the story of Pandora's Box to Maggie. Maggie doesn't learn the lesson. Fairy Tales--Ralph plays Humpty Dumpty in a 2-page short, then there are a string of Hans Christian Andersen tales that Lisa saves from the Flanders's book burning BBQ. Lisa reads the stories to Rod and Tod. There is "The Little Mermaid", "The Prince and the Pea" (featuring Smithers and Mr. Burns), "The Shadow" (featuring the Comic Book Guy), "Thumbelina", and "The Story of a Mother." My favorite is "The Ugly Duckling." I like the scene where Marge the swan takes in the ugly duckling Bart saying, "It's not like I haven't compromised before," while watching a fat Homer swan swigging beer and burping. Arabian Tales--Dunyazad (Marge) tells King Shahryar (Moe) stories to keep from being put to death. The first one is the best. Ned Flanders is Aladdin who finds a lamp containing an incompetent genie (Homer). His wishes grant him an all-you-can-eat buffet and go-go bar and an angry wife Maude brought from the dead in skeleton form. The other stories are "Apu Baba and the Four Thieves" and "Sinbart The Sailor." Shakespeare--Plays parodied are "Antony and Cleopatra," "Julius Caesar," "Henry V," "Romeo and Juliet," "The Two Gentlemen of Verona," "Richard III," "Titus Andronicus" (in Itchy and Scratchy cartoon form), and "King Lear." Most of these, in terms of punch lines, are pretty weak. Bible Stories--Bart tells Rod and Tod some Bible stories to calm them down after they find out Sunday School is canceled. The stories parodied are "The Prodigal Son," "Abraham's Sacrifice," and "Noah's Ark." These comics were, on the whole, funnier than the Shakespeare ones.

An enjoyable Simpson Comic
Format: Paperback
Now this is a fun book. It largely uses the same tv formula of irreverent humor to poke fun at the classics. The Simpsons and their extended family in Springfield play all the roles to perfection. The only thing that stops me from giving this a 5 star rating is that there are too many stories and they all seem slightly short and episodic.

A great way to introduce the classics to your kid
Format: Paperback
I mean it. It's very funny, yet introduces a number of important stories and characters from greek mythology and the Bible right though to Shakespeare. Will be funnier when my son reads the actual stories these are based on. A whole lotta compare and contrast will ensue, I imagine. I think it will pique his interest in the classics.
