HARDY CACTUS - Propagating

It doesn't take very much to propagate these cactus just some patience.  Start by cutting off one of the 'pads'.  Let the cut heal by just sitting it in partial shade (not on the dirt!) for a few days.  Once the cut is healed over, plant it in the ground upright or in a pot with loose well draining soil, and wait a few weeks for it to root.

The yellow blooms come after a drought so not watering the cactus really promotes blooming
