Kakteen Gautschi Opuntia edible fruits single leaf

Opuntia Edible Fruits Single Leaf

The prickly pear Opuntia ficus indica with edible fruits!

We produce these small cutting plants ourselves from mother plants. The individual pads will develop more pads in spring and summer, looking like in the second picture. A bit of patience is required, but Opuntias are known to grow quite quickly!

This cactus prefers to be placed in a sunny window or at least near a window, and it enjoys being outside in the summer. In spring/summer, water generously every 10 days, but make sure the soil dries out completely between waterings. In winter, water sparingly, no more than once a month, and it should not grow during this time. A cool wintering environment is ideal.

We wish you much joy with Kakteen Gautschi - quality, of course, in a clay pot!.
