Immediate flowering after potting.

I don't know if they're flowers or new pads but it's amazing nonetheless how quickly it started growing. Potted it about two weeks ago.

Single Pad to 4x4' plant

I was impressed with the order, shipping and delivery process. I ordered soil for them and after 4 weeks, all 3 plants seem to be healthy and getting use to their new dry and hot environment. I did not know what to expect in the size of my cactus plant. I hope that my 3-single pad Santa Rita Prickly Pears thrive and grow into the multi-pad complex of plant that I envision.
