## Questions & Answers

**Q: I need instructions for planting asap please. Can anyone help?**
A: These columnar cactus cuttings need to callous on the cut end, and then they should be planted, but not watered (or watered very sparingly).  They can be given more water once they root, but it will probably not be necessary.  If you live in a very hot climate, these cuttings should not be given full sun until they have rooted and are established.

**Q: what is the growing zone for this plant?**
A: I grow it in Zone 10.  I have read that it's hardy in USDA Hardiness Zones 9a-11b.

**Q: Do you have anything larger**
A: You should call the company. They don't sell larger on Amazon. Probably too hard to ship
