Unidentified Opuntia

Post by MikeInOz »

It's the only one which germinated from a purchase of Opuntia rufida ''Purple variety'' seeds. Pretty far from rufida.
Can anyone recognize it? Hybrid?

I think it has something with O. polyacantha (many spines in areole) and maybe with those varieties hystricina, erinacea etc. Might be a cultivar or hybrid but it's hard to say what at this size.
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.
°C = (°F - 32)/1.8
