Frost-resistant cactus from Mexico that produces edible and really tasty fruits.

Opuntia ficus indica, also known as the prickly pear cactus, originates from Mexico but is now grown worldwide in tropical and Mediterranean climates as both an ornamental plant and a fruit crop. The cactus's thorns are reduced and even fall off after a short time, making it virtually impossible to prick yourself. It is also frost-resistant down to -10°C and can be grown outdoors with winter protection.

Care.

The prickly pear cactus is very hardy and grows well even in soils that are not particularly fertile and dry. It is even tolerant of light frost down to -8°C if it is not wet at the same time, which can otherwise lead to rot. Late frosts in spring are poorly tolerated, as the new shoots freeze to death. In our area, it can be cared for as an indoor plant or even as a garden plant in a suitable location with mineral-rich soil.

Care.

Prickly pear cactus thrives in direct sun and warm temperatures . It can be fed cactus fertilizer every two weeks. It should be planted in a very loose, mineral-rich and well-drained substrate . In summer, the plant should be watered regularly and abundantly, but always so that there is no waterlogging.

During autumn and winter, watering should be significantly reduced , and for specimens planted outdoors, you should keep the soil around the plant dry. For this, you can cover the ground around the plant with a waterproof tarpaulin. In this way, it can survive frosts down to about -10°C. Then protect the plant with jute and or heating coil during the winter.

From autumn onwards, the stem sections start to become slightly wrinkled and often lose their ability to stand up. This is nothing to worry about. The cactus concentrates its cell sap and collects sugar in the cells, which lowers the freezing point. This is an anti-freeze mechanism!

Botanical description.

Opuntia ficus indica is believed to originate from central Mexico where its closest relatives are also found.

Fruits and flowers.

Commercially, it is grown primarily for its edible, sweet and sour fruits, which are widely used in Mexican cooking. Cultivation is particularly facilitated by the fact that the flowers are autogamous, meaning they pollinate themselves and form fruits.

Appearance.

The prickly pear cactus typically grows to around 3 metres in height, and the individual, flat stem sections grow 20 to 60 cm long and 10 to 30 cm wide. Over time, a woody stem forms. Grow your own exotic fruits, buy prickly pear cactus online!

Overall, these are some of the most comfortable flip flops I have owned, and would buy again.
Size: 6.5, Color: White Khaki
I was so happy with these KuaiLu Flip Flops that I bought two more pair, one in black and one in brown! They were comfortable right out of the box and did not need any break-in time. The arch support is excellent and gives my feet much better support than regular flip flops. They are also light weight, well made, and cute enough to wear with many different outfits. The soles have good traction, and they feel sturdy when walking.

Nice Flip Flops for the Price!
Size: 7.5, Color: White Khaki, Size: 7.5, Color: White Khaki
I just received my flip flops and tried them on, and they have a nice cushiony feel to them. The white color matches many of my outfits great. And while the fit is generally good, they could be a bit wider as I have wide feet. But they still feel comfortable.

runs big
Size: 7.5, Color: Camel
I am always a size 8 in boots, sandals, sneakers and read these ran large so ordered a size 7.5. They are still too big on me. I sent back for a 7 and I will update when I get those. They are very, very cute and comfortable! I love the cloth that goes over the foot!! That makes them seem a bit more fancy than regular flip flops. They also do sound like regular flip flops, so if you want a quiet sandal these are not for you. They are very cushioned and I can def feel the arch support. You will need to size down at least half size and maybe one whole size. The hardest thing for me was to pick a color! May have to get several pair! Just ordered my mom the dark blue and I know she will love them!!! Highly recommend, especially for the low price! Update: Got the 7 and are still too big. As I said, I got my mom the 6 so I tried them on and they are still a tad too big on me!!! BTW the sizes 8,7.5,7 and the 6 I can hardly see any difference whatsoever! They don't come in 5 1/2 so I am sending the 7 back for a 6 and keeping those just because they are so darn cute and comfortable! I also don't have a very thick foot so I wish the straps were a tad tighter, but I will deal with it. So, to sum up: Be sure to size down at least one size and maybe even two. Returns are easy, so maybe try a few different sizes! I haven't worn a size 6 since I was in about the 6th grade, so not sure what is going on with the sizing. Oh yeah, I did get three different colors and the sizing was the same with all three. HTH! Good luck!

Super comfortable from the first wear! Unique soles
Size: 10, Color: White Khaki
My husband actually picked these shoes out and bought them for me without my knowledge for a vacation we were going on. When I discovered he had bought me some sandals I assumed they would likely be super uncomfortable, too narrow, weird looking etc lol. I definitely didn’t give him enough credit. I absolutely love these shoes! They are incredibly comfortable! They match pretty much everything. The bow at the toes is so cute! The soles are a very cool sturdy and hard almost wood like material, while also feeling like a dream to wear. I ended up wearing them with my bathing suits, my shorts, my sundresses and even a couple of dressy outfits! I pretty much kept them on the whole vacation and ignored the 10 other pairs I wasted time and space packing. I don’t know what it is with these shoes but even o. Days we were walking really long distances at the beach or on days I was running all over the cruise boat from dusk til dawn, I never once felt uncomfortable in these and felt just the opposite in fact. I often get achey feet too; but it didn’t happen with these. Whether I was strolling the deck, dancing in the club, or standing waiting in long buffet lines, these shoes had me feeling fancy free and footloose.

The best sandals EVER
Size: 8, Color: White Khaki
These flip flops are so so so comfortable. I have bunions and a nerve problems so finding the right shoe is an issue for me. These are the most comfortable flip flops I have ever had the pleasure to wear. I cannot recommend enough how good and natural these feel. They are flexible yet supportive. So far on vacation they have walked miles with me and still in great condition. They are so naturally light weight. I will be buying again for sure
