4" Opuntia Microdasys Albata

White Bunny Ears Cactus (Opuntia microdasys ‘Albata’)

White Bunny Ears Cactus is a soft-looking, playful cactus known for its paired oval pads that resemble bunny ears, dotted with clusters of bright white glochids. The light-colored “polka dots” stand out against the green pads, giving the plant a clean, high-contrast look. As it grows, new pads stack upward, creating a whimsical, sculptural form.

Compact and drought-tolerant, this cactus is perfect for sunny windowsills and low-maintenance plant collections.

Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Bright light to full sun; strong light keeps pads compact
💧 Water: Water sparingly; allow soil to dry out completely between waterings
🌫 Humidity: Prefers low humidity
❄️ Temperature: Thrives in warm temps (65–90°F); protect from frost
🐾 Pet Friendly: Yes (But glochids can cause irritation)

Fun Fact:
The tiny white glochids may look soft like fuzz, but they are barbed and can easily stick to skin or clothing 🌵✨
