Anybody want a prickly pear cactus?
 

Well, our prickly pear signed its death warrant Saturday when it
attacked my husband when he ran outside to stop a dogfight (spring -
you've gotta love it). He's going to dig it up and haul it away. Truth
be told, it has done a number on all of us, and our dogs also carry the
wounds of getting too close to this monster.

If anyone in Virginia or nearby wants it, I'd certainly love to see it
go to a good home where someone appreciates it (Cereoid+ ??).

E-mail me if interested. Of course, right now it's buried under 3
inches of &^%*ing snow....

Sounds like the dumb dogs are the prickly pair not the plant. At least cats
have enough sense to stay away from cacti. Dogs never seem to learn from
their mistakes. If it was me, I'd get rid of the dumb dogs instead of the
innocent plants.

If you are talking about the common Opuntia humifusa, you can forget it.
Everybody has it.

If it is a shrubby one tell us more about it and maybe its name!
