A Desert Beauty With Unforgettable Trailing Stems

Disocactus flagelliformis, commonly known as the Rattail Cactus, is a striking desert cactus prized for its long, rope-like stems that cascade dramatically over the edges of pots and hanging baskets. With its soft spines, thick cylindrical stems, and impressive trailing habit, this cactus brings sculptural desert charm to any bright indoor space.

Despite its exotic appearance, the Rattail Cactus is wonderfully easy to care for. Naturally growing as an epiphyte in rocky cliffside environments, it thrives in well-drained, airy substrates and requires far less water than typical tropical houseplants. Give it bright light, let it dry out between waterings, and it will reward you with vigorous growth and, when happy, spectacular pink tubular blooms reminiscent of a Christmas cactus flower.

Must have for at home workers!
I bought this divider because I work from home and wanted to have a professional and neutral background for video conferencing. There were other dividers that I contemplated purchasing because of the variety of colors but ultimately decided to go with this divider because of prime shipping. I noticed in the reviews of other dividers on Amazon a lot of people talked about cracks. I noticed a few cracks on mine but they are small and minimal in appearance so it does not bother me (see pictures). Overall, it came in great shape. I love the color of the divider. I was concerned it would come solid brown based on the pictures but it is more rustic, which I love. The dividers are tall and long so it covers a great amount of space. The hinges go either way which is also a plus. I will say it seems slightly unstable on carpet but it would only move if bumped into so that is not much of a concern. Most likely would be more sturdy on solid/ hardwood floors. Overall, I am super happy with my purchase. Definitely worth the price with fast 2 day prime shipping and no assembly needed.
