Growing Information

The Coastal Prickly Pear Cactus grows up to 3 feet tall with a spread of 2 to 4 feet, forming clumping, upright growth. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining, sandy soil. Watering should be infrequent, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings, reflecting its drought-resistant nature. This cactus is hardy in USDA zones 9 through 11, making it suitable for warm climates.
