Cactus, Luther Burbank Spineless Cutting

Oputina hybrid

Between 1907 and 1925, Luther Burbank introduced more that 60 varieties of spineless cacti. 

These were developed mostly from hybrids of varieties of the Indian fig (Opuntia ficus-indica) and the Mexican prickly pear (Opuntia tuna), and were offered in two main types: the fruiting varieties, grown for their variously colored and flavored prickly pears, and the forage varieties, grown for their edible pads (properly called thalli or nopalitos), which could be fed raw to livestock or cooked for human consumption.

This cactus can grow to over 10' tall, however, in most northern areas it is more likely to grow to 5-6' tall. Staking may be necessary. Hardy to USDA Zone 8 and is generally frost hardy down to 20 degrees once established, however, young plants may be more frost sensitive.

Throughout Mexico and Central America, the young pads are peeled and fried or pickled. For more information on recipes and historical background of eating cacti please visit the Luther Burbank web page for this unique variety:

http://www.lutherburbank.org/about-us/specialty-gardens/spineless-cactus

We will send you a pad from a mother cactus that will need to be rooted, which is a fairly simple procedure of placing it in a gallon pot of potting soil and not watering until you observe new growth.  At this point is when new roots are growing. Watering before this point will make it rot. You will receive more detailed growing instructions with your order.

Please note the "spineless" variety lacks the long spines characteristic of this species but does have short irritating hairs and should be handled with care.

1 Un-rooted Cactus Pad: $12.00

**Title: Perfect Fit and Style for the Price!**
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy Blue
I recently purchased the Gafeng Men's Trench Coat in XXL, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! At 6'2" and 210 lbs with an athletic build, I was initially concerned about finding the right fit, but this coat exceeded my expectations. The fit is perfect—tailored yet comfortable—and the length is just right. The style matches the pictures exactly, which is something I’ve struggled with in past purchases. The lightweight, wooly fabric is surprisingly warm, making it ideal for winter without feeling bulky. For the cost, this coat is a fantastic deal. It looks sharp enough for business attire while still being versatile for casual outings. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a stylish and functional overcoat!

Definitely NOT the COLOR that’s advertised but not bad
I got this for my son for him to have his 1st official “dressy” coat for certain occasions. It will do for the price, but as I said in the description, it’s definitely not the color that’s shown in the advertisement. Its also not taken in like the picture. But not bad. It’s more of a camel color than a khaki like the advertisement. My son is 5’9 and has a slim build, I bought a L because he’s tall and this fits fine to be honest. I want him to be able to grow into it next year as well. If you have long arms you may wanna size up.

Nothing i wrote my comments above a statement above
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy Blue
This item was not good quality, so I decided to not not use. It came pretty much wrinkled and folded in some package. And once again, it was not good quality was all wrinkled up you had to Send it to the cleaners to straighten it out and it didn't fit very well. It just wasn't there very good quality, kind of heavy, so so\n I'm not sure if I'll return it or just donate it to the local church. Thank you art cruz
