Cactus grow slowly from seed. But the seeds came quickly. ### ⭐ Didn’t work *by M***A on December 9, 2025* Never sprouted ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought these as a back up in case the other seeds I purchased didn't sprout....thank god I did. *by F***S on June 12, 2024* These all (5 seeds) sprouted following proper instructions for germination. I bought a 15 pack from an other vendor and all the seeds were duds. Palm Beach Seed Company seeds all sprouted and are doing great so far. ## Frequently Bought Together - Palm Beach Medicinal Herbs - Prickly Pear Cactus (Opuntia stricta) - Packet of 5 Seeds - Sweet red Prickly pear Cactus Fruit! 10 Seeds!
