Add a charming and low-maintenance touch to your garden or indoor plant collection with the Attractive Opuntia microdasys – Bunny Ears Cactus, now available at SR Plant Nursery. Known for its adorable "bunny ear" shaped pads and golden dotted appearance, this cactus is an excellent choice for plant lovers who prefer both beauty and ease of care.

The Bunny Ears Cactus, also known as Opuntia microdasys, is native to Mexico and belongs to the prickly pear cactus family. What makes it truly special is its symmetrical, flat pads that grow in pairs — resembling the ears of a rabbit. These pads are covered in tiny yellow glochids (hair-like spines), giving it a fuzzy, golden look that enhances its ornamental appeal. However, despite its soft appearance, it should be handled carefully as the glochids can cause skin irritation.
