I’m wondering about that little appendage that’s coming out, what’s that and what’s it doing? Seems to be going away from the light. I tried to google but most result for my searches were just offers to buy a new cactus

    It’s a dragonfruit. For reference, it’s not like a standard cactus. Treat it more like a tropical plant. During the warmer months, they like to be watered frequently. In the winter, you might need to water it once or twice a month.

      Thanks! I was wondering why it so readily drank up all the water I gave it, my aloe didn’t like that much water.
