The Eastern Prickly Pear is a highly attractive cacti with cold, heat, and drought tolerance. In the spring pollinators and people flock to them.  Their cheery yellow blooms are large and individual masterpieces that blanket the plants for weeks starting in late May.  Once they are done blooming the purple fruits are borne on the pads giving another color flare until winter.  The pads take on a rosy blush in the winter offering a 365 day display.  The fruits and pads are edible but care must be taken to eliminate the spines which can be painful.  The Eastern Prickly Pear is native to the eastern United States and grow locally here (DE) at the beaches and in upland forests.  They prefer quick draining soils and will not tolerate wet feet.   A stellar plant for the front of the garden border, plantings en masse, or even in containers with quick drainage.  An easy plant for the beginner and equally fun for the experienced gardeners alike.

Noah's Ark
It's the largest caddy I could find that is great. Compared with other product reviews: no assembly required, sturdy, scratch protected feet, no rusting, etc. I bought clear and black spray, foam and capped bottles for it and just love having all my natural cleaning products out, handy, coordinating and looking good. Add a splash of color with some nice kitchen sheers or dish cloth. I like that it's not broken into a lot of compartments, but rather mostly platform to mix and match lots of bottles onto. I do have a long handled brush, and the basket holds it beautifully without tipping. I also found a silicone draining mat I like the look of, and it fits Perfectly under the caddy in place of the clear/white tray it comes with. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BHQ9MRZQ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Since I see this caddy set up every day, I'm happy to have a quality product on display.

Great product.
This stand works perfectly for me! Ive bought a lot and they either rust or the tray leaks water or you have to let the built in metal tray run directly in to the sink, which doesn't work if the sink is raised even a little bit. This stand holds multiple cleaning tools, sponge brushes etc, the drain plugs and I can hang my cleaning cloth to dry. It is perfect. The tray catches all the water drips and cleans easily. It is compact and makes my kitchen counter look neat.

Strong Suction Cups
Color: Silver
I didn't realize that this caddy came with the option to use suction cups or adhesive hooks. I opted for the suction cups and was pleasantly surprised at their strength. I loaded the caddy up with a couple of sponges, fingernail brush, and a dishwashing brush (filled with liquid soap) and have had no problems with the caddy remaining strongly secured. It's a great little organizer and looks really nice.
