The yellow varieties are less sweet than their red counterparts, but they are favored as an end of summer treat in Italy for their juicy flesh. Yellow Cactus pears can be incorporated into a wide variety of culinary applications and are preferred to be consumed fresh. Nutritional ValueYellow Cactus pears contain vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, and potassium. ApplicationsYellow Cactus pears are best suited for raw preparations as their mild flavor often gets masked in the cooking process. The spines must be removed before use and can be burned or scrubbed off using gloves and tongs. The skin also needs to be removed and can be slowly peeled away from the flesh. Once prepared, Yellow Cactus pears can be consumed raw or chilled. They can be scooped out with a spoon or cubed and used in fruit salads, smoothies, on top of oatmeal and yogurt, in acai bowls, cereal, and in salsa. The raw flesh can also be pureed to use on ice cream, with yogurt, or in sorbets. Cooked Yellow Cactus pears can be transformed into jams, syrups, or as pie filling. Yellow Cactus pears compliment chicken, shrimp, other tropical fruits such as lemon, lime, and banana, watermelon, and honeydew melon. They will keep 1-2 weeks when stored in the refrigerator.

Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times, it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or soil/water/lighting.
