My plant journey began years ago and now my home has been overflowing with so much greenery! I created this listing to be able to sell and share! 🪴 Pick your preferred plant cutting from my shop listings and how many you'd like to receive.

🌵 Each order includes at least ONE Snow Cactus (Hairy Opuntia) cutting/paddle. Cuttings may vary slightly in size, shape, and amount of fuzzy growth. Roots are typically not present, as these cuttings are intended to be rooted by the recipient. All cuttings will be freshly cut, and carefully packaged prior to shipping to help ensure successful propagation.

The pictures are just an example of the type of Snow Cactus Hairy Opuntia cutting you are buying. You will not receive the exact same paddle of the Snow Cactus Hairy Opuntiain the photo.

👋 Also, please understand NOT all leaves/cuttings will be in absolute 100% perfect condition. Unfortunately nature isn't always perfect. There may be some very small blemishes or maybe none at all depending on the plant and where I can cut. But I will absolutely NOT send you a dying leaf with a huge brown spot or hole that's for sure! 😉🥹

‼️ Please allow 1-3 business days to process your order. All cuttings will be shipping via USPS Standard Shipping early in the week (Mon-Wed). This way the plant is not stalled over the weekend. I want to make sure your plant babies arrive safe and well! 🥰

‼️ Please choose PRIORITY if you would like to insure it arrives faster, has less stress and includes insurance for mishandled or lost packages. I am not responsible for packages once they are shipped out. You agree to these terms upon purchase. ✅

‼️ In addition, please be aware of your local weather as I cannot control or be held responsible for weather damage, shipping delays or package errors by USPS. ☃️

🌵 Please check out the propagation tips & tricks to help your new Snow Cactus (Hairy Opuntia) cutting thrive!

#1.) Upon arrival, remove your cutting from the packaging and inspect the cut end. If the cut end is not fully dry and callused, allow it to sit in a dry location out of direct sunlight for a few additional days before planting.

#2.) Once the cut end is fully callused, place the cutting upright in a container filled with well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix. Bury the bottom 1–2 inches of the cutting just deep enough to keep it stable. Do not water immediately after planting.

#3.) Wait approximately 5–7 days before the first light watering. Thereafter, water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. Overwatering before roots develop is the most common cause of failure.

#4.) Place the cutting in bright, indirect light while roots are forming. After several weeks, gently tug on the cutting to check for resistance, which indicates root growth. Once rooted, gradually introduce the plant to more direct sunlight.

Note: Your cutting may appear slightly dehydrated, wrinkled, or stressed from shipping. This is normal and typically does not affect its ability to root. Cacti store water within their tissues and are well adapted to periods of dryness. Simply allow the cutting to callus if needed, plant it in well-draining soil, and give it time to establish roots.

Please handle with care. While this cactus appears soft and fuzzy, the tiny spines (glochids) can irritate skin and are difficult to remove once embedded. Consider using gloves when handling.

🙆♀️ While I am here to help with the amazing and fun propagation experience, I cannot promise or guarantee 100% successful propagations. For more success, you may also want to "google" and do your own research on how best to take care of your cuttings and keep learning on your plant-loving journey! 🌻 Being prepared and gaining knowledge about the process will help you to help your plants thrive.
