The Peruvian Old Man Cactus is a unique columnar cactus covered in soft white hairs that give it a distinctive, sculptural look. It thrives in bright light with minimal watering and requires well-draining soil to prevent root rot. This drought-tolerant plant prefers warm temperatures and handles dry indoor air well. With proper care and patience, it grows slowly into an eye-catching statement piece. Low maintenance and striking in appearance, it’s perfect for cactus lovers and sunny indoor spaces.

Winter can quietly stress houseplants, even when you’re caring for them regularly. Lower light levels, dry indoor air, and temperature changes often lead to yellowing leaves, wilting, or slowed growth. Many of these signs look alarming but are actually part of a plant’s natural winter response. Understanding what your plant is telling you helps prevent common mistakes like overwatering. With a few simple adjustments to light, watering, and humidity, your houseplants can stay healthy through the colder months.
