I went to North Coralina to visit my aunt,who gave me a peiceof her cactus that was growing outside of her home.I took a peice of it and replanted it.Im not sure of how to take care of it. It looks exactly like the prickly pear cactus.Can you tell me how to care for it?
We Japanese always take the state of Azizona Western wild scene attacking white and Indian. I love cactus,'cause,it always remind me early American.Brovo AZIZONA for good.
There is a plant that looks the prickly pear that is growing outside of my work. I found a piece that was broken off and had some rot. Is there any chance I can save it???
I replanted what i thought was a two jointed section of a prickly pear. It grew two yellow flowers. From those two flowers starting growing what i thought would be new joints. They are growing long and curling around the plant and does not look like the bigger joints. It does not get much light so I am wondering is this really a prickly pear and is the lack of sunlight changing it? If it isn't a prickly pear what is it? Thanks.
I got a few cactus plants from a nursery close my home. The owner told me that it's called prickle pear or hardy cactus. It's does not have too much long torns in the middle of the leaves. So I don't know are they called prickle pear? ( I saw another one similiar but they have more torns and the leaves smaller than mine.) The point is I really love it but don't know how to take care of it. I notice that they have some yellowish color and big black spots on the leaves. I don't know because of too much rain ( I live in Portland, Oregon.) or the soil is not drain enough. I really wander can they survive in the winter and rain? and how to take care of them? what kind of food should I feed them? I really love these cactus and don't want to lose them.
I have what I believe to be some form of the prickly pear cactus in my yard, although it doesn't have the thorns in the center. It's very cold and pods are dying.Should I cut back the dead pods and wait to see what happens?
hi, I hope someone can help me, I was on holiday in spain on an art course, and found a really flat prickly pear pad on the floor, it looked pretty dead so i picked it up and used it as a canvas ot paint on , I took it home with me ot the UK after customs said it was fine to keep as it was dead, and i noticed tiny tiny roots growing so i planted it and it grew into a healthy plant:)
then:/ i had a diasater :( It grew quite big and I plnted it in a large tub for a bit and watered it in my university shower:P and someone banged on my door:/ and i forogt about it and retrned a few hours later to find it sodded:/ and the main pad died:/ i was devastated:/ but managed to save the pad growing from it, but....
I dont know if its uk temperature or im doinf something wrong.... the plant wont grow normal, instead of a large pad, its long tall and narrow and slim, and new pads grow from the present pads and grow the same:/ it doesnt look like what it should do what can I do?
should I take off the pads growing on the now main leaf so all nutrients are concentrated in it? its 7 ears old now and is the same:/
