Bunny-ears Prickly-pear Copper Red, Opuntia Microdasys, Large Bunny Ears Prickly Pear With Copper Fuzz And Red Areoles In 2 Inch Pot,

Opuntia Microdasys (Bunny Ear Cactus) is a beautiful decorative cactus that is native to Northern Mexico. Bunny Ear Cactus has flat pads covered with glochids, light green, round to oval shape just like bunny ears, and yellow flowers will bloom as they mature. This cactus can grow up to 3-4ft tall and 4-5 ft wide.

It is a popular houseplant because it’s easy to care for and doesn’t need much attention to survive. It is a lovely addition to your collection of plants, especially if you have it displayed in a beautiful decorative pot. This plant appreciates bright and direct sunlight and well-drained soil.

Bunny Ear Cactus is sensitive to over-watering, so allow the soil to dry before watering again, and make sure there is an excellent draining hole in the pot to prevent root rot. Fertilizing them during their growing season in spring using a succulent fertilizer will help them boost their growth. You can propagate them via cuttings and seeds.

You can grow them in Hardiness Zones 9a-11b.
