Thank you! I think you could grow it with some LED lights above it. Your window light probably isn't good enough most of the year.

Would that grow in Cottonwood, AZ? My Dad has a place there, and I think the yard is depressing with only rocks and stumps to look at.

Hi Rubi
I used to visit Cottonwood frequently. He could grow it outside with a bit of protection during the summer from the heat. It would like to hang from a tree or be put under a patio. It would need to go inside the house or a greenhouse for the winter. I've grown mine in a bright southern window and it did well and bloomed like crazy every winter.

I had peanut cactus for years and never realized it flowered so beautifully!

Toni, I think you have to give them super bright light all year. In AZ I had it in a south window, and I've grown it in a west window here in NM. That one is in a greenhouse now. It doesn't get water very often. I hit it with the hose maybe twice a month.
