Red Sabra Cactus
32.93 ₪
A striking and productive variety of the prickly pear, the Red Sabra is a desert icon that offers sweet, ruby-red fruits.
Growing 2–3 meters tall, its broad blue-green pads provide a dramatic structural element.
The fruit is incredibly juicy with a flavor reminiscent of watermelon and berries, while the young pads (Nopales) can be grilled for a savory treat.
שאלות ותשובות
How do I peel the fruit safely?
The fruit has tiny nearly-invisible spines (glochids). Use tongs to pick them and singe the fruit over a flame or scrub it under water before peeling.
Is it easy to propagate?
Extremely. Simply take a mature pad, let the cut end dry (callus) for a few days, and stick it in well-draining soil. It roots almost anywhere.
