Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Prickly Pair Cactus (Opuntia Cactaceae): This is the common name used for plants of the cactus family. It is endemic to Galapagos and it is also the most common in the Islands.

It has yellow flowers that develop into an orange-red prickle covered fruit and can grow up to 5 feet tall.

The prickly pear cactus is an important component of the Galapagos ecosystem upon which other organisms depend. Many herbivores feed on its pads, fruit and flowers. The Prickly Pear Cactus is the source of food to a lot of Galapagos land animals as well as birds.
