BOTANICAL SAMPLE - NOT GERMINATION TESTED

Life cycle: Perennial

We really love prickly pears. While they can be annoying — the tiny barbed spines on the outside of the fruit, known as glochids, are truly horrible — they are delicious, refreshing, and beautiful. The plants are useful both as a fruit and a vegetable, since the young pads can be harvested and eaten (known as nopales in Mexico). The taxonomy of the prickly pear genus — Opuntia — is complicated, so we don't actually know the species name of any of the prickly pear accessions we offer, but we are excited to be offering this third cold-hardy prickly pear from our friend and longtime collaborator Andy Hahn in Colorado. He believes there's a good chance this is Opuntia macrorhiza. Andy found this cactus growing in the wild and reports that it has great-tasting fruit, though it's seedy (like most of them). Prickly pear fruit makes a tasty jam or syrup, but most people simply eat it raw. In our experience the seeds germinate best when planted on the surface of sandy soil given a dusting to cover them. They should be kept wet, but can be allowed to almost completely dry out between waterings. Heat helps them germinate, as does patience. The tiny cactus seedlings are adorable, at first resembling fleshy little squash seedlings, before a tiny spined tuft appears in the middle. They should be treated with care while young, but once they reach maturity they are very hard to kill, and a single pad can be removed and rooted simply by lying it on its side on the ground.

Perfect for Organization and Super Efficient
Color: White
I got this label maker because I am going to be a teacher and needed an easy way to label and organize a lot of materials, and it has been perfect for that. It is very quick and efficient, and I was able to start using it right away without any issues. The labels come out clear, and the whole process is simple and convenient, especially when you have a lot to get done. I also really like how compact and easy to use it is, which makes it great for both classroom and home organization. Pros: • Very fast and efficient • Easy to set up and use • Great for organizing classroom materials • Compact and convenient • Great value for the price Overall: This is a great tool if you need to label and organize quickly. I would definitely recommend it, especially for teachers or anyone who likes to stay organized.

Works wonderfully, I'm obsessed with labeling!
Color: Green
This is super easy to set up and use. I love the color and the size. I didn't want a label maker that needed a whole drawer to live in. The print is great, I love the multiple font options. My only complaint is that the label paper cutter on this actually cuts it too short. So when you go to print the next label it believes there is no paper. For the price point, I'd say absolutely worth the purchase

Good, convenient and portable printer
Color: Green, Color: Green
This printer works great for my needs. The battery life has been good and the printer app functionality has worked without any issues. For me it is very easy to use and understand so overall I think it is a good, portable and convenient printer. However my one ad only issue is the labels get stuck and causes an error about 80% of the time meaning the label won’t print out unless I open it and realign it perfectly. That is a pain! I am contemplating returning it for a new one to see if it is just a design flaw or a printer issue so I am rating it 4 stars.

I’m officially old now, but at least my stuff is organized. (A truly im-press-ive gadget).
Color: Green
I hit 30 recently, and apparently, my birthday present from the universe was a sudden, overwhelming urge to organize my garage and pantry. I bought this Nelko P21 to help with the transition into full adulthood, and honestly, it’s been a blast to use. Setting it up was surprisingly painless. You just download the app on your phone, turn on Bluetooth, and it connects almost instantly. The app itself is straightforward—you don't need a tech degree to figure out how to change the fonts, add borders, or even insert little icons. Since it's a thermal printer, you never have to buy ink or deal with messy cartridges, which is a massive plus for me because I would absolutely find a way to spill it. The machine itself is tiny, basically the size of a couple of smartphone decks stacked together, so it doesn't take up any room in a drawer. The labels print fast, the text is sharp, and the adhesive on the tape that comes with it holds up well on plastic storage bins and glass jars. My only minor complaint is that the app forces you to look at a ton of font options, and a lot of them are locked behind a subscription or paywall, but the free, basic fonts are more than enough to label a box of spare cables or spice jars. If you've reached the stage of life where clean storage containers bring you joy, this thing is worth every penny.

Didn’t Expect to Use It This Much, Now I Reach for It Daily
Color: Black, Color: Black
I originally bought this label maker for a few simple tasks, but it quickly turned into something I use almost every day. As someone who manages multiple locations and stays organized across different responsibilities, having a quick and reliable way to label and categorize items makes a bigger impact than you’d think and this does exactly that. What stands out: Quick setup and easy Bluetooth connection. Compact design that’s easy to keep within reach. Clear, professional-looking labels. App gives enough flexibility without being complicated, allows you to create QR codes as well as functioning barcodes. One thing to note: There’s a short learning curve with the app, but nothing that slows you down after the first couple uses. Bottom line: If you value organization and efficiency, this is one of those small tools that quietly improves how you operate day to day.
