Opuntia fulgida 'mammillata' (Jumping Cholla Cactus)

The Opuntia fulgida 'mammillata', commonly known as the Jumping Cholla Cactus, is a unique and fascinating plant. It is a type of cactus that has cylindrical stems covered in spines that easily detach and cling to anything that lightly touches them. This feature earned it the name 'Jumping Cholla'. The stems are green and segmented, growing in a sprawling, bush-like form. The Jumping Cholla Cactus produces beautiful yellow flowers during the spring.
