2 Shiny Green Pad Cactus Plant Cuttings Fast Grower

You are buying 2 healthy cuttings of Pad cactus. The pads are a shiny emerald green and produce small yellow flowers on the edge.

Each cutting will become it's own plant or small tree like the one in the photo. The cuttings will vary in size. They all are propagated by cuttings. I cut off a section and let the bottoms dry out for a few days. When you receive them plant in a loose sandy soil and keep moist until they root. Slowly wean off watering once rooted and then only water when dry.

The Mother Plant is growing in the ground and it's 5 years old and started from a cutting a friend of mine gave me. The Pad plant is a fast grower and loves neglect.

When you receive them plant in a loose sandy soil and keep moist until they root. Slowly wean off watering once rooted and then only water when dry.

I carefully pack for shipment. Your cuttings might be stressed from shipping. Be prepared for your plant when it arrives. You will receive a tracking number so make arrangements if you won't be home. You don't want them sitting in a hot mail box for to long.
They thrive on neglect and grow easily in dry conditions. They make a great addition to a rock garden or a nice house plant!

They are drought tolerant. In colder climates, they can be planted in containers and brought in during the winter. Allow soil to dry between watering.

*Cautions: These plants do have a small thorns on the leaf pad.

As with all succulents and cactus, it’s better to let it dry out rather than risk too much moisture and the ensuing rot.
