Opuntia spp.: characteristics and care
Opuntia spp., popularly known as the prickly pear or *nopal*, comprises various shrub-like cactus species made up of flattened, paddle-shaped segments; they are prized for their hardiness and showy blossoms in shades of yellow, orange, or pink.
Their bushy, branched habit and rapid growth make them a very practical choice for both defensive hedges and xeriscaping.
They tolerate extreme drought and poor soils very well, provided there is good drainage.
At Ornacom, we directly cultivate each specimen, guaranteeing a balanced form and healthy development from the first years of planting.
