Prickly pear cactus from Sardinia


Prickly pear cactus from Sardinia (Opuntia compressa (Eastern Prickly Pear))

I twisted a little purple fruit off a huge prickly pear cactus in the wild of Sardinia. It looked like nothing is happening with it for months, but then gave a leaf and then another one and now it is 4 years old
