Prickly Pear hopes

Our cactus is starting to fruit.

Hopefully we'll get enough this year to make some prickly pear jam. We only had 3 fruits last year.

  1. Awww, I hope mine fruits soon too. This is my first year growing prickly pear, and I mistook new pad growth for fruit growth! lol!

  2. NotSoAngryRedHead - We did the same thing the first year! We thought all those new pads were fruits - we were so excited!

    Josie - thanks!
