Santa Rita Prickly Pear

Needles

As it was being unboxed, the gift recipient was getting the paper and cardboard ready for recycling, and noticed the paper instructions were at the bottom. Unfortunately, she got her fingers and hands covered in little needles trying to get to the paperwork. I wore gloves and was good, she unfortunately was not as happy as I was hoping she’d be.

Shipping did take some time but it was worth the wait. I received a good size cactus with 3 new "heads" on it. It was packed securely. Im excited to watch it grow.

Beautiful cacti

I now have four of these little beauties. Packaged well. Be careful planting as they are prickly! One of them has been in the ground a week or so and is doing well, the others I just planted a few days ago. They all look happy.
