Prickly Pear (Opuntia tuna) - 6cm Pot

This cactus will eventually grow very large, but when small can be used in a dry terrarium. Must have good light and a free draining soil. Water occasionally as the soil dries out but try to avoid letting the pads start to shrivel. Tortoise love opuntia and it is a great food for them. Grown in a large pot you can harvest pads for feeding without killing the plant.
