They show a remarkable abilty to come back from cold, scorching heat or neglect. But if you treat them well, they will surprise you with growth, flowers and some more growth.

Opuntia erinace autahensis (546)

This form has very few spines, and a nice purple flower. Probably not a erinacea, but maybe a hybrid with a short pines plant (aurea or bsailaris).

Pads are spiny, but the spination varies. Flowers can be all sorts, but I have mostly pink.
