Description: OPUNTIA ENGELMANNII VAR. LINGUIFORMIS- Properly Opuntia engelmannii Salm.-Dyck ex. Engalm. var. linguiformis (Griffiths) B.D. Parfitt & Pinkava. Nice fresh 8 inch or longer clean cutting. Cut treated with Rootone root growth hormone to help with sure rooting. Native originally across the Southwest from Texas to Arizona, this cacti is often called "Cow Tongue Prickly Pear" or "Lawyer's Tongue " and other common names. Very attractive yellow flowers when blooming, produces edible fruit and the young pads are often used as a vegetable- rather like green beans! The pads can be juiced and like most of the Prickly Pear Cacti provide several health benefits including lowering of cholesterol levels and reduction of blood sugar (University of Arizona study). Hardy and fairly easy to grow in most climates where it does not freeze often, these do better if protected from frost. Photos here are similar to what you will receive cutting from- they vary. FREE SHIPPING! We try to pick the nicest scar free material we can for these. We use no pesticides of any kind on these.
