Eastern Prickly Pear cactus


Eastern Prickly Pear cactus flower, July 10, 2023, Rondeau Provincial Park in our yard.
In Canada, the Eastern Prickly-pear Cactus is found only in southern Ontario. There are two known locations, which are on sand spits along the shore of Lake Erie. Based on historical reports, this cactus may once have been marginally more widespread in areas near Lake Erie and Lake St. Clair.
