Prickly Pear Cactus with Fruits in Desert Valley Coloring Page

This coloring page shows a cluster of flat prickly pear cactus pads covered in spines and bearing round ripe fruits with seeds. Tiny flowers peek between the pads. It's set in a rocky desert valley with distant canyon walls, scattered rocks, and small desert plants.

Fun facts

The ripe fruits taste sweet like watermelon and are safe to eat.
Cactus pads store water to survive long dry times in hot deserts.

Coloring tips

Use red and pink for the ripe fruits on the cactus pads to make them look juicy.
Color the tiny flowers between pads in yellow or white for bright spots.
Add browns and grays to the rocks and canyon walls for a real desert look.
