Prickly pear in my scree garden
Yep, this cactus really does grow in my Canadian garden. In fact, this prickly pear is a native of Saskatchewan, a western Canadian province. Still, every year when it flowers, I'm pleasantly surprised that not only has the cactus survived but it's actually happy where it grows.
