Watering and Feeding Water these cacti every 1 or 2 weeks during the spring and summer. Reduce watering to 1 or 2 months in the fall and winter, and avoid if the temperature falls below freezing. Soil Common prickly pears require an air gap between their roots and the soil to grow. So, a well-draining soil that is 50% sand is essential. Hardiness This variety of Opuntia is cold-hardy. It has a frost tolerance of 0° C (32° F) and belongs to the hardiness zone of 9 to 11. Light These cacti need to receive full sun exposure for 6-12 hours per day. If it gets cool enough in the winter for them to go dormant, they can survive indoors by a sunny window. Propagation Opuntia crests can be propagated easily from stem segments. Place the pad upright in your garden or on its side to plant your cacti cutting. To encourage rooting, make sure the cut portion of the pads is slightly touching the soil.
