Which Opuntia is this?

Post by Harriet »

This Opuntia has outgrown its pot, and now is trying to take over my front entry. I never have properly identified it, even common as it is. Please help.

It’s not the fall that kills you; it’s the sudden stop at the end.

Looks to me like Brasiliopuntia brasiliensis.
