Bunny Ear Cactus (Opuntia microdasys): A Prickly Pair with Personality

The Bunny Ear Cactus, also known as Opuntia microdasys, is an adorable cactus with a playful appearance. Its pads, which resemble bunny ears, are covered in tiny, fuzzy glochids (hair-like spines) that give it a soft and cuddly look, despite its prickly nature. This cactus is native to Mexico and is a popular choice for adding a touch of whimsy to any indoor or outdoor space.

Caring for Your Bunny Ear Cactus:

• Light: Provide ample sunlight. This cactus thrives in full sun conditions.
• Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
• Soil: Use a well-draining cactus and succulent mix.
• Temperature: This cactus prefers warm temperatures and can tolerate some heat.

With its playful appearance and low-maintenance needs, the Bunny Ear Cactus is a delightful addition to any cactus collection.
