This remarkable little cactus earns its nickname Bunny Ear Cactus as its pads resemble the ears of a bunny and has a thick fur like coat, otherwise named Glochids. They are very hardy and easy to look after being moderately drought tolerant.
The Inside Scoop
They may look cute and cuddly but be sure to avoid contact with skin as the Glochids (hair-like spins) are an irritant.
