A Desert Beauty With Unforgettable Trailing Stems

Disocactus flagelliformis, commonly known as the Rattail Cactus, is a striking desert cactus prized for its long, rope-like stems that cascade dramatically over the edges of pots and hanging baskets. With its soft spines, thick cylindrical stems, and impressive trailing habit, this cactus brings sculptural desert charm to any bright indoor space.

Despite its exotic appearance, the Rattail Cactus is wonderfully easy to care for. Naturally growing as an epiphyte in rocky cliffside environments, it thrives in well-drained, airy substrates and requires far less water than typical tropical houseplants. Give it bright light, let it dry out between waterings, and it will reward you with vigorous growth and, when happy, spectacular pink tubular blooms reminiscent of a Christmas cactus flower.

Hooks broke that hold coat hooks. Had one month!!!!
I really loved the idea of this, but the hooks in the bars that hold the coat hooks are very flimsy!!! I have only had one month and they broke!!! It is not made to hold ANY heavy to medium weight coats things!!! I would not recommend this unless you only hang very light weight things on hooks.

worked for my son's dorm room !
We used this as an over the bedrail item for my son's kitchen items in his dorm room. We did not raise his bed that much, so the mugs are closer to the floor, but it worked perfectly. It was very easy to assemble, without needing any screws or tools !

Very nice, large baskets, good value
Nice but the hooks may not fit thicker doors. Mine is just barely wide enough and you cannot modify it to make the hooks fit better you just have to bang it on.
