As an Australian I find the idea of growing prickly pear in your backyard hilarious. It’s an incredibly invasive feral species.
However, since I also have bamboo growing in my backyard here in Australia, I can’t throw stones, can I?
It would be very hard to hit Wisconsin with a stone from Australia!
Do you guys eat them? They are delicious in salsa and salads.
It’s going to be time to make some jam in a few weeks!
Or nopalitos today!
Heck yeah!
Jam jam jam JAM JAM JAM!
I just saw a video about the history of the prickly pear in Australia and it kinda went the same down under https://youtu.be/oYE9OwUzzeI
Great vid. Thanks for sharing.

Don’t pick these by paw, try to use the claw.
Got to eat you your way out.
Bunch of pricks for sure.
