Eastern Opuntia Bloom!
Yearling cutting from a wild clone colony on my Property in Nashville, Tennessee! I was expecting a pure yellow bloom but surprisingly, a beautifully red throat and nectar guide! The one that hasn’t bloomed yet not bloomed yet (2nd pic) I suspect could possibly be even more red. How rare is the phenotype coming from a wild clone colony? (Not aware of ornamental cacti in the area.)
