OPUNTIA CACTUS PAD PRE-ORDER For Pick-up or Shipping in August and September
PLEASE DO NOT MIX PRE-ORDERS: The plants in each pre-order are only available for shipping or pick-up during a specific period each year. Orders for each pre-order must be placed separately from other pre-orders and our Main Catalogue.*
Update August 30th: Cactus pads have been harvested and orders are now being prepared for shipping and pick-up. As new orders come in through September and October we will harvest and prepare fairly quickly and get them to you. Thanks for your orders!
The garden can be a dangerous place, especially when it includes hardy cactus! We're pleased to offer a selection of 28 different Opuntia and Cylindropuntia for pick-up or shipping in August and September once this year's pads are fully developed. We are discontinuing growing cactus rooted in pots so both local and mail order customers will need to order from the pre-order. Cactus pads are easy to root in free draining media by laying them flat on the ground or by burying a small portion of the base. The minimum to place an order is $25.
Local Customers:Choose "pick up" when you check out. We will email you when it is time to come in. Please add our email address mailorder@phoenixperennials.com to your address book to help our email get past your spam filter.
Mail Order Customers: Please do not mix plants from this pre-order with other pre-orders or the Main Catalogue. These plants all ship at different times and require different packaging. Cancellations and Changes: Once plants are ordered, they are reserved for you and can’t be sold to anyone else. We view your order as a commitment you have made with us in good faith. For this reason, cancellations for full refund will only be accepted until July 31st, 2023. After that date you can choose to cancel for a refund minus a 25% restocking fee or cancel for a full store credit.

*Mixed orders will be charged an administrative fee of $5 per pre-order/main catalogue order to cover our costs of separating and organizing your orders. As a rule, all pre-orders ship separately due to timing and different packing requirements. In some cases we may be able to combine some pre-orders to ship together if you send us a detailed email listing all of your orders. While we will do our best, we cannot guarantee that any pre-orders will ship together. **Applies to shipments of cactus pads only. If potted plants are added then the quoted rate will apply.
