Why are people so obsessed with the cactus? Maybe it’s their strange cuteness that attracts us? Maybe it is their punny attributes? Or maybe it’s their resilience that inspires us (I mean they literally can live through anything it seems!). Personally, we love cacti for their tie to the bees! Yep, many species of cacti, including the prickly pears, are partially pollinated by our friends the bees! While we would love for our house to be covered in cacti, we don’t have the funds to fuel the addiction. SO here is our tried and true method of how to propagate, AKA create more cacti! What you'll need
- Cactus pads
- Pot
- Succulent soil
- Silicone tipped tongs
- Nitrile dipped gloves
- Sharp knife
- Be aware that cacti aren’t easy to handle, and so be careful! Don’t just grab the cacti, use the tongs!!
