: I bought some Opuntia cactus pads from Annie Lancaster, but I have one question. How do you replant them? What kind of soil do they need? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Shelly,
Order your pads, let them dry out a few days, then dig a shallow hole in a sunny area of your yard, plug'em in, and grow'em. Really easy and they grow fast!

Now, if you live in Alaska or something it might not be that easy, but I bet Annie, or the Turtle Cafe, will guide you through planting if you have special conditions.
