TINY PLANT ADOPTION KIT
Couldn't load pickup availability
Sassy Silver is a real, live thimble cactus paired with a handmade one-inch silver-shimmer polymer clay pot and tiny pink cat-eye glasses. This low-maintenance mini cactus brings a little sparkle to a desk, bookshelf, windowsill, or plant collection and makes a playful gift for someone who likes plants with personality.
The Tiny Plant Adoption Kit includes the cactus, inner white pot, pre-portioned soil, water dropper, magnetic hexagon coaster, care guide, certificate of adoption, registration card, and detachable Cactus Pal keychain. The cactus arrives unpotted for you to plant at home.
Give it bright indirect light and a few drops of water about every two weeks, letting the soil dry between waterings.
Each pot is finished by hand in San Diego, with small handmade variations.
Yes. Each Tiny Plant Adoption Kit includes a live thimble cactus. Since these are real plants and handmade pots, no two are exactly alike. Each has its own quirks. Some are a little rounder or taller, with slight variations in finish and color. Every one is perfectly tiny and guaranteed to fit its pot.
Yes. Your thimble cactus is meant to stay small and can live happily in its little pot for years. If you want it to grow larger, wait until it has roots and move the white inner pot into a bigger home.
Give it a few drops of water every two weeks with the included dropper. Let the soil dry before watering again. Place it in a warm spot with bright, indirect light. A bright window is a perfect home. Office or artificial lighting can work too, but give your tiny friend the brightest spot you have.
Your cactus arrives unpotted so you can give it its welcome-home setup. Place the white inner pot inside the clay pot, add the included soil, and rest the cactus on top. Give it a few drops of water. The whole ritual takes about 30 seconds.
Name your tiny plant and sign the included certificate of adoption. The certificate turns the first-day setup into an official welcome home for your new tiny friend. Now you have a tiny responsibility.
The Cactus Pal keychain is a detachable mini cactus included with every adoption kit. Carry it with you or place it inside the clay pot as a forever plant backup that never needs water, perfect for when life gets busy.

My cactus still has not planted himself in the soil.

Store owner replied: Thank you for the review, Tracy. A thimble cactus ships unrooted and sits on the surface at first, so what you are seeing is normal, and light is usually what gets it anchoring. We have emailed you with the details and a couple of questions so we can make sure Bob is on the right track.
Love it

I got two tiny plants, one the sassy silver and one in a mystery pot. I love them both, and named them Bonnie and Clyde! I’ve only had them a few weeks, but they are doing well so far! They have a miniature orchid friend sitting with them. Very cute and fun!

It looks exactly as pictured. The directions are easy to follow and worked perfectly. I just love it! I'm terrible with plants, but even I can keep my tiny plant happy!

It arrived safely. I put everything together as directed but I’m not sure if it’s alive. How do I tell?

Store owner replied: Thank you, Kathie, and that is a good question. The first test is touch, because a healthy thimble cactus feels firm to the gentlest squeeze rather than soft. The second is color, though our cacti are not all one shade, so a deeper green, a light green, or a slight yellow can each be perfectly normal. What matters is whether it has changed from the color it arrived in. They also grow very slowly and take several weeks to root, so seeing no change is normal. We have emailed you the details, and you are welcome to send us a photo any time for a second opinion.

I bought this for my plant loving sister, so she could have a “little” something on her desk. She LOVES it! She was so excited to do a “little” gardening.

It’s really cute, well packed. I would have given 5 starts had there been instructions included, rather than the scan thing.
