Description
Opuntia, commonly called prickly pear, is a genus of flowering plants in the cactus family Cactaceae. This paddle cactus genus is named for the Ancient Greek city of Opus, where, according to Theophrastus, an edible plant grew and could be propagated by rooting its leaves.
Prickly pears typically grow with flat, rounded cladodes containing large, smooth, fixed spines and small, hair like prickles that adhere to skin or hair, then detach from the plant. The cactus thrives in regions with mild winters having a prolonged dry spell followed by hot summers with occasional rain and relatively low humidity.
Some digital effects were applied to the original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition. Your finished photograph will not contain the Fine Art America watermark.
