Prickly Pear Cactus (Opuntia fragilis)

Yes, it's a native Manitoba cactus! This very hardy cactus has spectacular rose-like pale yellow blooms in late June. It will slowly spread to cover an area a few feet across and is an ideal low-growing plant for rock gardens. The sharp spines are perfect for discouraging unwanted critters from entering your garden.
