Notes

  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Despite Pink Prickly Pears having Corruption/Crimson/Hallow variants, they can only grow on regular or Hallowed Cacti, and the remaining two variants can only be created by biome changes (e.g. due to biome spread or solutions).[1]
    • When attempting to grow a Prickly Pear, the game checks a rectangle around the top of the cactus: up to 5 tiles to the left, right, and above the cactus and up to 15 tiles below it. If there is any Ebonsand or Crimsand in that rectangle, the Prickly Pear will not grow.

Trivia

  • Although Pink Prickly Pears are available in placed form on the Nintendo 3DSNintendo 3DS version version, breaking one never yields an item.
