Medium Cactus Box (grafted Moon Cactus)

$70.00

These glass desk plants make the PERFECT GIFT as a self contained all in one kit that is guaranteed to spread smiles!

READ CAREFULLY- Please be aware I have changed the format for these boxes. Going forward each batch will contain multiple of the same cactus. No more hoping for one and receiving another?

There is a limited quantity available as each piece is hand made by me right here in the USA.

Each box comes ready to plant with a small terracotta pot, premeasured bag of white gravel, one hand made medium moon cactus measuring 3in-4in tall signed and dated GG24 with COA and stickers.

Everyone has seen those brightly colored almost fake looking cacti at your local big box garden center. I’m taking about the little guys that are grafted together and look like colorful mushrooms. Yes they are cute but do you know the story of these plants? These extra bright cacti are genetic mutations from the original plant and are essentially inbreed cactus. The bright colors are a direct result of a lack of chlorophyll and while this does mean pretty colors it also means the cactus cannot properly photosynthesize to grow. The only way these cacti can survive is by being grafted to another root system that can supply the missing nurturance. Generally these grafted cactus do not live long, maybe a year or two in the right environment but often die in just a few months. I’m here to offer you a much better alternative. My moon cactus colors will never fade or shrivel up, they don’t require cultivating genetic mutations and are guaranteed to always be blooming. Best of all they are individually crafted with care and intention rather than mass produced for pure repeatable consumption. I hope you enjoy this new series as much as I do!

As a Utahn I have developed a real love and respect for the wilderness around us. While thinking about ways I could express those feelings through glass the cactus plant quickly became a favored option. Not only do they grow in all sorts of interesting shapes and sizes, but they also have some striking similarities to glass I could not ignore; Cacti are known to be strong and resilient yet delicate and even fragile at the same time, all characteristics that are equally visible in glass and I feel make this series a natural fit. It is my hope with these glass plants to remind others of the natural wonders that bestow our land and the value of coexisting within it, along with providing a little light and a few smiles along the way

These cacti are perfect for those of us that may not have a green thumb or lack the prefect window for live plants. Easy and clean is the name of the game, and just like real cacti these glass plants will continue to shine for generations with a small amount of maintenance.

I believe the human consciousness connects us all, and the actions we take in this life echo through each other whether we want them to or not. With that in mind I have chosen to devote my life to creating visual art in the hopes it makes a positive impact on the world around us. If each of my pieces can spark a conversation, or inspire someone to make a change, or even brings out a single smile it was all worthwhile.

While I hope my art lives on long after I’m gone it’s not about being remembered, it’s about continuing to encourage the positive aspects of the human experience that I feel are most important.
