Opuntia polycantha It is a tough hardy Opuntia growing as far north as Wyoming in the US and at high altitude from 3000ft to at least 7000ft above sea level.

It is a low-growing Prickly Pear with a sprawling habit; the new growth grow upright and then becoming prostrate as further new growth weighs them down. It has long slender white spines that look harmless enough compared to many a cactus but when you touch them you discover they are barbed and overstay their welcome!

Grown in 1L Pots
