Frost-resistant cactus from Mexico that produces edible and really tasty fruits.

Opuntia ficus indica, also known as the prickly pear cactus, originates from Mexico but is now grown worldwide in tropical and Mediterranean climates as both an ornamental plant and a fruit crop. The cactus's thorns are reduced and even fall off after a short time, making it virtually impossible to prick yourself. It is also frost-resistant down to -10°C and can be grown outdoors with winter protection.

Care.

The prickly pear cactus is very hardy and grows well even in soils that are not particularly fertile and dry. It is even tolerant of light frost down to -8°C if it is not wet at the same time, which can otherwise lead to rot. Late frosts in spring are poorly tolerated, as the new shoots freeze to death. In our area, it can be cared for as an indoor plant or even as a garden plant in a suitable location with mineral-rich soil.

Care.

Prickly pear cactus thrives in direct sun and warm temperatures . It can be fed cactus fertilizer every two weeks. It should be planted in a very loose, mineral-rich and well-drained substrate . In summer, the plant should be watered regularly and abundantly, but always so that there is no waterlogging.

During autumn and winter, watering should be significantly reduced , and for specimens planted outdoors, you should keep the soil around the plant dry. For this, you can cover the ground around the plant with a waterproof tarpaulin. In this way, it can survive frosts down to about -10°C. Then protect the plant with jute and or heating coil during the winter.

From autumn onwards, the stem sections start to become slightly wrinkled and often lose their ability to stand up. This is nothing to worry about. The cactus concentrates its cell sap and collects sugar in the cells, which lowers the freezing point. This is an anti-freeze mechanism!

Botanical description.

Opuntia ficus indica is believed to originate from central Mexico where its closest relatives are also found.

Fruits and flowers.

Commercially, it is grown primarily for its edible, sweet and sour fruits, which are widely used in Mexican cooking. Cultivation is particularly facilitated by the fact that the flowers are autogamous, meaning they pollinate themselves and form fruits.

Appearance.

The prickly pear cactus typically grows to around 3 metres in height, and the individual, flat stem sections grow 20 to 60 cm long and 10 to 30 cm wide. Over time, a woody stem forms. Grow your own exotic fruits, buy prickly pear cactus online!

Runs big, and fabric may not be same color as picture
Color: Medium Grey, Size: 16, Color: Medium Grey, Size: 16
This suit was a good find for us, as we usually dress up for church, and my 13 yo son often wears suits. He normally wears a size 16, so that’s what we ordered, and in dark charcoal gray. The suit we got was a light, heathered gray that didn’t look much like the one in the picture. It was very wrinkly and thin, and a little scratchy. Also, the sleeves were way too long and the torso cut of the jacket was pretty wide. The pants were very large in the waist, but fit him decently in the length (he’s 5’4” and weighs 90 lbs). Overall the suit looked like it was drowning him, so I would order a size down unless you have a larger child/teen. Because of the ill fit, I haven’t had the chance to see what the suit looks like on him as it’s supposed to, but I guess I’ll return it or wait a year or two until he fills it out a bit more. Not overly impressed with the quality, so I’m not sure I’d pay $55 for this one again.

A good First Communion suit
Size: 6, Color: White, Size: 6, Color: White
This suit looks and feels really nice even though it’s not 100% linen. My son is an average size 7 year old, but I got a size 6 so that the fit would be nice and snug and not loose and baggy. It was the right choice. Comes with a bow tie which is nice, a tie (which is very cheap and poorly made) and a pocket square.

Very stylish💜💜
Size: 6, Color: Light Blue, Size: 6, Color: Light Blue
This little suit for boys is very stylish. I bought it for my grandson for a wedding occasion and it looked very nice. The fabric is not too thick so for the summer wedding it was great. I pick the blue color and it looked fantastic!
