Care & Growth Requirements
Light: Thrives in bright, direct sunlight but can tolerate partial shade.
Watering: Requires minimal watering; allow soil to dry completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Soil: Well-draining, sandy, or cactus mix soil is ideal.
Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures (above 50°F/10°C) and is not frost-tolerant.
Propagation: Easily propagated from stem cuttings, but handle with care due to its toxic sap.
Toxicity Warning
The milky sap of the Pencil Cactus is highly toxic and can cause skin irritation, eye inflammation, and severe discomfort if ingested. Always wear gloves when handling or pruning.

Handy, plenty of space. Diverts excess water to sink. Needs a tweak to keep the cloth hook in place.
Color: Gray
Since it has a metal basket instead of a solid base, it much less messier, which I like. Like that it has a hook for a wash cloth, but that was constantly coming off with the cloth until I used some sticky paddy to help keep it in place. Would probably have returned ii if the time to do a return had been longer. I do like that it has a slope to divert the water into the sink instead of the countertop.

Sink Caddy
Color: Gray
It looks good on back of sink but would be more efficient if it were 1/2 an inch deeper. As it is, it doesn't have enough stability and tends to move about, therefore excess water may not run in sink as front edge doesn't pass over sink edge.
