DESCRIPTION
You will receive approximately 4" pot-sized plant similar in the photos.
This item will be shipped bare root or in original plastic pots, whichever is better for the plant. We handpick to order and make sure all are healthy plants before shipping.

Opuntia × basilaris ‘Baby Rita’ is a compact, cold-hardy hybrid prickly pear cactus known for its stunning seasonal color changes and small size. This beautiful cultivar is a cross between Opuntia basilaris (Beavertail Cactus) and another cold-tolerant Opuntia species, resulting in a plant that’s both visually striking and resilient.

The pads are round to oval-shaped and emerge in shades of soft purple and pink, especially in cooler temperatures or full sun. New growth often displays vibrant magenta tones. In spring, it produces cheerful yellow to pale pink flowers that contrast beautifully with the colorful pads.

Care Requirements:

  • Light: Full sun for best color and growth.
  • Water: Very drought-tolerant. Water deeply but infrequently, allowing soil to dry out between waterings.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining sandy or gritty soil.
  • Temperature: Extremely cold-hardy, tolerating temperatures as low as -10°F (-23°C); USDA zones 5–10.
  • Growth Habit: Low-growing and clumping, typically reaching 8–12 inches tall and 12–24 inches wide.

Special Features:

  • Vibrant purple/pink pads with seasonal color variation
  • Cold-hardy and drought-tolerant
  • Low maintenance and ideal for rock gardens, desert landscapes, or container growing

HANDS. DOWN. AMAZING.
I have used other products for after sunning in the past. This stuff is AMAZING and I wish I could be a spokesperson for it. I am extremely fair skinned and used this on my vacation at the beach. I used some spf which always leaves me slightly red. I put this on every night and the redness was gone by morning! I was ready to hit the sun again! It doesn’t have a scent and doesn’t leave a sticky lingering feeling or weird smell either. Just moisturizing and safe for my acne prone skin. I will buy this and use this forever!!!!

Phenomenal.
Got a baaaaad sunburn from head to toe. On day 2 or 3, I finally got this stuff. It took the sting away quickly. No smell, and it feels nice on the skin. It’s thin and spreads well. Definitely helped keep my burns moisturized - I didn’t even peel, save for the blisters on my shoulders. My boy even let me put it on his pink little cheek, and

Miracle in a bottle!
This was a lifesaver, I got badly burnt just walking for several miles one day. It was only in the 80's, not 100 degree's but still hot. Where I live there is a poor air quality, too. I was red as a lobster! It was painful and then i saw this. Read the reviews and hoped it would help. Did it ever! It not only helped sooth my skin, calm it down, it dramatically reduced the redness in just a few days! I should have saved the photo's of the before a several days after, but I deleted them. (I wasn't thinking and they were kind of gross). They would have shown the extent of the healing thanks to this cream. I even had some blisters, that shrank in two days after applying this! By the fourth day of applying this cream, they were gone and my skin went from being deep red to pink. What is even more awesome is this moisturized my skin! I have sensitive skin and this did not irritate it. So that was a plus! My only issue was it's a little tacky, sticky after you apply it. So don't apply right before bed, unless you want to be stuck to your sheets. If you're in dire need of relief and to reduce the redness, this is what you want, it is a miracle in a bottle!

Good sunscreen
I originally had purchased the spray version of this product. Unfortunately, the cans clogged so I needed to return them and I ordered this instead. It tends to go on thick but I really need heavy protection so it’s fine. Seems to give good protection and I will buy it again. I’m only giving up four stars because I would’ve preferred the spray.
