Description

can prickly pear cactus grow in a pot Opuntia RufidaOpuntia rufida is a species of prickly pear cactus known by the scary common name blind prickly pear! It is native to Texas and adjacent Mexico, where it grows on limestone. The species makes up for its total lack of spines with a profusion of red brown glochids which it sheds with abandon and is a menace to any gardener. Whether it's true or not the glochids have the reputation of detaching and flying on the wind and can blind cattle. Low maintenance

Opuntia rufida is a species of prickly pear cactus known by the scary common name blind prickly pear! It is native to Texas and adjacent Mexico, where it grows on limestone.

The species makes up for its total lack of spines with a profusion of red-brown glochids which it sheds with abandon and is a menace to any gardener. Whether it's true or not the glochids have the reputation of detaching and flying on the wind and can blind cattle.  

Low-maintenance and an excellent choice for anyone new to growing houseplants. This plant will thrive as long as its water only when it's completely dry and kept in a warm and sunny spot.

Interesting pillowcase that does run cool to the touch
To begin: I'm a 64 y/o woman who still gets hot flashes, despite air-conditioning and a fan blowing on me at night. It's the sheets off then blankets on routine that so many of us know. I ordered this pillowcase hoping that I would find some kind of relief in the night, even it was only for my head. The fabric is very unusual. It's a silky nylon blend, very swishy and soft. It reminds me of luxury, expensive women's lingerie. It's extremely slippery, moreso when you have your head on it; there certainly won't be any resistance or pulling on the hair all night. I washed it before using it, put it in a mesh bag to protect it from getting snagged. It washed and dried as good as new. One thing to note: because it is so slippery the pillow may want to slide a little out of the pillowcase. I slept quite well and did not experience any heat or sweating on it. The reason for the 4* and not 5* is the price, at almost $20 it is a bit pricey for a rectangle of nylon fabric. I could see if it were real silk, but it's not. Otherwise it's exactly what it purports to be.
