| Hello, I am looking for out of the ordinary types of opuntias, especially if it cold hardy and large padded. I have a couple of interesting types to trade but my collection is limited. I have a large padded spineless O. engelmannii from NM area to offer. Grows pads 10-14" in length.
Looking for prickly pears that grow big, take unusual forms like deformities and variagated types. Please drop me an email jeaners127@gmail.com and any pics. Thanks, Jean |

| I do like that opuntia in the picture. I have what people call an "old Mexico", or frog foot opuntia. I have never found a name for it. It is cold hardy to about 14 F. It gets cold damaged at that point and lays down on the ground, I have the spineless Opuntia cacanapa var ellisiana Z 6 or 7.I have a opuntia chenille AKA Opuntia aciculata. You can get ahold of me through my member page if you are interested |
