Opuntia Consolea rubescens

The unique Roadkill Cactus embodies the classic cactus silhouette but with a flattened appearance. This distinctive plant makes a bold statement with its flattened fronds and textured surface. It's noticeable from side on.

In its natural habitat of Puerto Rico, this spineless cactus can reach towering heights of up to 20 feet, taking on a more tree-like form.

Maintaining this cactus is a breeze, making it an excellent choice for plant enthusiasts. It thrives in bright sunlight and can even tolerate occasional direct sun exposure, so feel free to let it soak up some rays. However, exercise caution when it comes to watering – only water it when the soil has completely dried out to prevent overhydration.

Please note the cactus you receive may well look different from the one in the picture. It might have fewer arms, old detachments where some of the branches have naturally fallen off or snips where they have been propagated by the growers. These are not defects - it's a natural product and adds to the character of each one.

Tip: As soon as it gets cold, cacti stop growing. Therefore from November - March do not water your cactus and keep it away from radiators and drafty areas.
