My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

prickly pear ID

17 years ago

Can someone please give me an ID on my prickly pear? It's fairly common here in NC (not naturally)...the parent plant was about four feet tall, pads are maybe 8" across, yellow flowers. I have about 10 kinds of opuntia/cylindropuntia, and this is the only one I'm unsure of....
