The cactus you sent me a while back are doing their thing! I planted them a few days after I recieved them and one of the three has sprouted a new pad. I am hoping the other two will start to multiply soon also. Thanks again Ed...

hopefully you can get it outside in the summer and it will really take off.

I started with one pad from a friend and now I have enough to send out and feed.

They grow like weeds here.

You're very welcome.

Nice. I'm lucky enough to live upstairs from a Mexican Deli. They always carry cactus pads. My Hermann's loves them.

The discoloring at the bottom of the plants doesn't appear to be rot at all. I have had problems with other cactus rotting when overwatered. I have been very careful with these and am having good results!
