This is the prickly pear cactus cuttings I bought. I wasn't sure that I would get them to grow and would have been very happy with just one growing. But as you can see all 3 have rooted and taken off. This type is supposed to be able to take our winters planted outside. I will transplant one this summer. I don't want to put all of them out until I know for sure.
Today is supposed to be very nice. So I am hoping to spend some of it outside. I might get some buckets and start hauling dirt to my planters. I want to get them ready. This year I think I will try some green bean plants in them. If I get them ready soon enough I might plant some peas also.
Patch might get a walk also. She will spend extra time outside today for sure.
Hope you have a good day

@wolfgirl569 I have parsley growing everywhere in the pots on the balcony. I will move soon to the garden. Parsley does not fear the cold.

It was quite chilly outside yesterday. Then it clouded over and we got some rain. I love your cactus plants. I'm still thinking about buying one. Hope you have a good day too.
