LlamaLlori said:Thornless Opuntia! Has anyone grown it? Can you tell me if the fruit is as good as the thorny/Glochidiay one? I work at a nursery and we get the regular Prickely Pear, but we also sell a friendly thornless one. I love the "tunas" (fruits) from the regular one, but am not willing to endure the "jumping thorns". I've done more than enough of surgery with tape and tweezers, thank you very much! Anybody have the thornless one? I'm all ears!


Hmmm - Now I could go for that. If any pads fall off feel free to mail me nodding
Still pulling thorns hours later. Heh
