Opuntia polyacantha erinacea

Live Cutting (3”-6" pads) - Cold Hardy -25F!



Prickly Pear 'Hot Pink' (Opuntia polyacantha erinacea) is a prickly pear cactus growing in the high desert region of Oregon. Sometimes referred to as "Plains Prickly Pear", this extremely hardy ecotype grows as far north as the plains states and into Canada! Beautiful bright pink flowers separate this particular hybrid from the usual yellow flowers often seen with this species. These are fast growing and will produce a large clump 3-4 feet wide by 2-3 feet tall. This hybrid variety has been growing completely unprotected for decades in the cold high desert region of central Oregon, zone 6b, repeatedly seeing temps below -15 F and we know they have survived -25 degrees (F) in the midwest! Planting instructions are included!
