Opuntia monacantha (Drooping prickly pear catus)
Opuntias come in a huge variety of shapes, colours and sizes. Opuntia monacantha or the drooping prickly pear is a compact cactus that can grow very tall indoors. It has a mid-green variegated stems and bumpy textured surface with small spines that are reddish.
RATING- Super Easy
LOVES- As with all desert cacti this plant will need a bright and sunny spot where possible, especially throughout winter. The main requirement is fresh air circulation.
HATES- Shade, the plant will grow towards the light if it is too dark. Do not mist as these plants don't need humidity. Overwatering is a big killer of cacti- water sparingly throughout spring-autumn and reduce in winter.
Pot diameter 8.5cm, 12cm
Toxicity rating- Flesh and fruit not poisonous to pets, however the glochids (spines) are extremely irritating to both human and animal skin
More information and care recommendations are below.
