DESCRIPTION
The Prickly Pear Cactus (Opuntia) is a striking and hardy plant native to the Americas, known for its distinctive flat, spiny pads. Growing to 0.7 meters tall, it thrives in full sun and prefers a dry environment, making it perfect for bright indoor spots or outdoor gardens. This cactus requires minimal watering, particularly in Singapore's humid climate—about once every 2 to 3 weeks is sufficient, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. It is drought-tolerant and easy to care for, making it an excellent choice for those with busy lifestyles. However, it is toxic to pets and should be kept out of their reach. The Prickly Pear enjoys lots of sunlight but dislikes overwatering and soggy soil. With its unique appearance, this plant can be a wonderful addition to any space that needs a low-maintenance, sun-loving plant.

Plants
It’s completely normal for plants to experience a bit of stress when they arrive at a new home. This may show as slight wilting or a few yellowing leaves—nothing to worry about! It’s a temporary adjustment period as the plant settles into its new environment, and with the right care, it will quickly bounce back and thrive.
Just like us humans, plants aren’t perfect. They’re living things with their own unique character, and minor imperfections are a natural part of their life. What’s most important—and what we guarantee—is that your plant is healthy and ready to flourish with the proper care.
Just like when you're picking out a plant in person—there's always that moment of, "this one or that one looks nicer?"—each plant has its own unique charm. That's the beauty of nature!
On our end, we make that process easier for you. We work directly with trusted growers to select the best batches, and every plant goes through a 3-step quality check before it gets packed. If a plant doesn’t meet our health standards, we simply don’t send it out.
That’s what you get when shopping with us—healthy, happy plants that are ready to thrive in your space.
