Last winter I decided to move a row of opuntia and have been putting it off, yesterday I started cutting, cut a little more today,It's almost like WORK, I dug some roots out and that is WORK.I wish there was someone close enough to come get some (or all) for their tortoises.This type is very fast growing with an extremely large amount of blooms and large fruit with very small seeds. These are 4 year old plants from pads.Here is a pic of what is cut so far, about half done. Also a pic of where my impressed tortoise lives.
