Cactus

When you are planning your cactus garden you will want to consider adding some Prickly Pear cacti to it.
The prickly pear cacti like sunny well drained areas. If the soil they are planted in has excellent drainage they can tolerate quite a bit of water as well. Be sure and make sure it gets some protection from cold winter winds for best results.

In planning your garden first determine where your garden will be placed. Good choices include hills since water can easily drain although flat ground is perfectly fine, it will take a little more preparation. Next, decide what size cacti you want and the preferred shape. Just as with a flower garden, you can be as creative as your imagination allows. Whatever you like - rectangles, circles, diamonds, squares, it doesn't matter, there's an answer for any shape. Just choose a new garden that fits your other garden ideas or you can create new ones!
