Welcome to Rivenrock Gardens, we are a certified-organic edible nopales cactus nursery and market garden.
Located on the central coast of California, in Nipomo we sell virtually spineless edible prickly pear and ornamental landscape cactus plants. Visit our cactus plant catalog to see our selection of cactus cuttings if you should wish to grow your own.
For info on growing cactus, and general organic theory and practice visit our Philosophy Pages.

OK folks, probably if you hear the name 'Cactoblastus' you think of a Mad Max movie. But this is a real thing that attacks cactus and will cause huge amounts of problems in the USA. The Forest Conservation Portal is a website dealing with various forestry issues, they have an excellent article on this pest. Please, only buy your cactus plants from nurseries like ours that have the Department of Agriculture inspect each shipment to states that require it. We don't need this pest spreading around and destroying the native cactus plants.

Another article, this one from NPR can be read, and listened to.
