Opuntia Subulata

Opuntia subulata is a cactus with an upright, architectural growth habit, prized for its sculptural and modern appearance. Its dark green, cylindrical stems are dotted with small spines and persistent, subulate leaves, giving it a unique, graphic look. Robust and easy to care for, it integrates perfectly into bright interiors and contemporary decors.

Care

• Light : Very bright with direct sunlight. Good exposure is essential to maintain compact and upright growth.

• Watering : Light. Water only when the soil is completely dry. Reduce watering significantly in winter.

• Temperature : Ideal between 18 and 30°C. Tolerates heat well. Protect from frost.

• Substrate : Very well-draining potting soil for cacti and succulent plants.

• Growth : Slow to moderate growth. Can become quite tall over time.

• General care : Handle with care due to the thorns. Avoid overwatering, the main cause of problems.
