Description: Cows Tongue prickly pear cactus (Opuntia Linguiformis ) cuttings/branches, large box full, 12"x12"x6". Usually i can fit 10-20 pads depending on how large they are. the pads can range from 4 to 11" tall and 2-6" wide. These plants in full sun get covered in beautiful flowers and tons of fruit. From just a few cuttings, in a year or two you will have a large plant, maybe a foot tall, with flowers that attract tons of pollinators like bees. They go well in outdoor landscaping and are good container or patios plants. They do well in sun or shade and are good plants for beginning gardeners because they are very difficult to kill. They can fruit their 1st year and can be dryfarmed or grown off only rain in california. They are native to Texas and are a USA native. Great plant to farm or grow in your garden. If looking for larger quantities for your farm private message me. Great for cactus collectors and can be gifts for your gardening friends. They are great in drought tolerant or low maintenance gardens. Amazing plant for edible landscape, permaculture farms and gardens, and market gardens. They do well in temperatures down to 0 F and up to 130 F. Great indoors We got the mother plants from a landscape demo where they were throwing them out and we took them to the farm to recycle them. Now we farm them and sell them too. I have never used insecticides, pesticides or herbicides on the plant and it is only given nutritional intake from organic tree mulch and rain water. These cacti are great for your garden. These plants can grow from a small plant into a large one giving hundreds of additional branches/cuttings throughout its growth. Each of these new branches are new cacti and can fruit as well! These plants can also be used as landscaping plants as they are drought tolerant & care free species. They only need to be watered once a week for a year then once a month after that unless it rains, then you dont need to water. I will get the biggest plants possible at the time for you that fits in this package. Will be heavily watered before shipping. Carefully packaged & shipped to you without harming your plants.
