DESCRIPTION
You will receive approximately 4" pot-sized plant similar in the photos.
This item will be shipped bare root or in original plastic pots, whichever is better for the plant. We handpick to order and make sure all are healthy plants before shipping.

Opuntia × basilaris ‘Baby Rita’ is a compact, cold-hardy hybrid prickly pear cactus known for its stunning seasonal color changes and small size. This beautiful cultivar is a cross between Opuntia basilaris (Beavertail Cactus) and another cold-tolerant Opuntia species, resulting in a plant that’s both visually striking and resilient.

The pads are round to oval-shaped and emerge in shades of soft purple and pink, especially in cooler temperatures or full sun. New growth often displays vibrant magenta tones. In spring, it produces cheerful yellow to pale pink flowers that contrast beautifully with the colorful pads.

Care Requirements:

  • Light: Full sun for best color and growth.
  • Water: Very drought-tolerant. Water deeply but infrequently, allowing soil to dry out between waterings.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining sandy or gritty soil.
  • Temperature: Extremely cold-hardy, tolerating temperatures as low as -10°F (-23°C); USDA zones 5–10.
  • Growth Habit: Low-growing and clumping, typically reaching 8–12 inches tall and 12–24 inches wide.

Special Features:

  • Vibrant purple/pink pads with seasonal color variation
  • Cold-hardy and drought-tolerant
  • Low maintenance and ideal for rock gardens, desert landscapes, or container growing

Sensitive skin
Such a good product. I use after micro needling when skin is sensitive. Also a great product to use as a barrier serum when starting tretinoin cream.

Saved my skin during an eczema flare up
This saved my skin! I had an eczema flare on my face, and my usual products weren’t working. A friend recommended the Avene brand and within 3 days of using this rescue barrier serum, my flare was almost completely gone! This saved my face!

PLEASE REVIEW — FORMULA CHANGED!!!
I wish I would’ve posted a review PRIOR to the formula changing but just know that I LOVED this serum. I’ve struggled with hormonal acne (PCOS) and eczema for as long as I can remember. Finally, last summer my dermatologist put me on (3) different RX including Spironolactone and Accutane. I was so tired so I stopped everything except for CeraVe cleanser, retinol (Tretinoin) and CeraVe healing ointment. My made up skin routine was working until I used too much Tretinoin and burned my face. I had read great reviews about this product so I thought, I might as well try it — and IT WORKED! I’ve been using this product for almost a year and I loved it. However, 3 weeks ago when I ordered it, I noticed the bottle had a green tint. I could tell after one use that the feel of the serum was different, more watery, not as thick as it used to be. The smell was also different. Still, I kept using it for nearly 2 weeks and I experienced 2 breakouts! Sure enough, I stopped the product and within a few days, my skin was back to normal. I am very upset because as someone who has extremely sensitive skin, this worked but unfortunately, the new formula isn’t for me.
