Cactus - Eastern Prickly Pear (Opuntia Humifusa) Opuntia Cacti Eastern Prickle Pear Cactus

Perennial

Height 2 to 3 ft

Did you know that there are 3 species of Native Cactus in Canada? And, they are extremely rare, and endangered, and can be found in Western Canada as well as in Ontario, embracing both snow and ice, unaffected by our freezing temperatures!

The Eastern Prickly Pear, is a perennial, low-spreading cactus that has round flat green stems with clusters of barbed bristles and a width of 1 to 4 ft. It produces fascinating yellow flowers with red centres, blooming in June and July. Excellent choice for xeriscaping! Great for containers and rockeries. Great terrarium project for kids. 

Note: always wear gloves - the Opuntia cacti has tiny spines (to protect from grazing animals and excessive transpiration), somewhat bothersome - wear gloves when handling. 

    • Full Sun
    • Soil: dry/sand.
    • Opuntia is one of the cacti that has a tough seed coat, the hard seed of the prickly pear cactus won't allow gasses or water to enter - they will germinate more quickly if the seed surface is abraded and soaked. To break this dormant state, the seed is scarified: to do this, boil a pot of water, remove it from the stove and soak the seed in it. When the water cools to room temperature, remove the seed. OR, scarify the seed by making a small opening, with sandpaper, a small knife, or your fingernail.
    • Soak in lukewarm water for a few days, changing the water daily.
    • Mix the soaked seeds with moist sand and store in the refrigerator for 60 days before planting. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination.
    • OR stratify by placing in soil in the freezer or outdoor cold for 4 to 6 weeks.
    • After the completion of these steps, plant your seeds into a moist, well-draining seed starting mix and cover. Do not plant deeply - 1/8 in.
    • Spacing: 1 in apart in pots until they are 1 year old; prop up seedling with bits of pumice and keep in same pot for one year. Transplant into single larger pots after one year.
  • OR Direct sow in late fall, pressing them into the surface of the soil.
  • Germination: 41 days
  • Maturity 50 to 55 days
  • Harvest: Seeds form in the blooms of the cactus. Remove flowers as they fade and place these in a small paper bag. You’ll find the seeds when the flowers have totally dried up. Keep in a cool dark place or in the fridge until ready to use. PM
  • Seed Count: 10

It is a good sunscreen, but if your skin is very oily, think again.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I have tried many, MANY sunscreens, and this one is in my top 10, but not at the very top. Why not? Well, what I like about it is that you get a good amount for an excellent price. It's lightweight, but not extremely so, and this size can easily last you 3 months without any problem. However, while it's made for oily skin, it's not that light. After just a few hours of application, it can leave your skin feeling greasy, especially if you sweat easily. It doesn't leave a white cast, but it does leave a slight, shiny finish. Reapplying isn't very comfortable. If you use it just once a day, it's fine, but if you apply it more often, your skin will feel a bit heavy and oily. I think this sunscreen is better for specific occasions rather than for daily use. If I had to choose a sunscreen for daily use, I would pick one with a lighter formula, like Fusion Water from Isdin.

stellar sunscreen for face- sensitive skin friendly, feels good not greasy on, timeless
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I used to try out different brands and this is the one I've got to have for my face- safe on sensitive skin and just feels really nice and not greasy putting on, sometimes I get stuck borrowing so now I get a few and have them in various places. Also, I appreciate they don't change the packaging or add other versions so I can grab and always feels great and works on

Works great but does not hold up to sweat
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
Dissolves with intense exercise then burns eyes and makes a mess, but otherwise works great.
