Opuntia x basilaris 'Baby Rita'
An exceptional heat-loving dwarf hybrid with brilliant carmine colored flowers in a small padded, purple-skinned prickly pear. Thrives in a range from coast to inland deserts, and even into high altitude mountain areas! Loaded with spring blooms, the blue-grey purple-tinged foliage color intensifies to a vibrant purple in winter.
Succulents and Cacti Basic Care: Easy
- Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between watering. Water deeply and infrequently, ensuring excess water drains away. Reduce watering to a minimum during the winter.
- Light: Most succulents and cacti thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. Some species can handle direct sunlight, but it's best to acclimate them gradually to prevent sunburn.
- Soil/Drainage: Use a well-draining potting mix designed specifically for succulents and cacti. The ideal blend should contain porous materials like perlite, pumice, or coarse sand to promote aeration and drainage.
- Temperature: Prefer warmer temperatures but can tolerate a range from about 40°F (4°C) at night to 95°F (35°C) during the day. Protect them from frost to prevent damage.
- Humidity: These plants prefer low-humidity environments. If indoor humidity is high, ensure good air circulation around the plants to help keep moisture levels down.
- Fertilizing: Feed sparingly, only during the growing season (spring and summer), using a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer diluted to about half the recommended strength.
