Cinnamon Cactus

Opuntia rufida

  • Miniature Prickly Pear that makes an adorable windowsill plant with polka dots of short, coppery bristles or “glochids”
  • Monstrose form grows extra thick, swollen looking stem segments that branch and stack up on one another
  • Sun-lover that can show a deep purple blush at its edges when grown in direct sun and gritty, well-draining soil
  • Easy and adorable cactus that stays small in a pot and only needs infrequent water and lots of sunshine

Hardy to 30°F (Zone 10)
