Most Long-Spined Prickly Pear can tolerate quite a bit of frost provided they are out of the rain.

Care: Water regularly during the growth period, but make sure you have a well-drained potting soil, preferably with sand and gravel. Keep the plant dry during the winter period.

Overwintering: This is best done in a dry, cool place with sufficient light. Completely hardy species can be left outside in the garden, provided rain protection.
