RE: papa-peppers guide to plant propagation - Pitaya and Prickly Pear
Another great info post from @ papa-pepper . We have boatloads of prickly pear around here, grows wild out in pastures etc. ranchers down in South Texas will burn the spines off of it with propane torches so the cattle can graze on it.
Yeah, it's just part of that DELICIOUS Texas landscape...
Speaking of that, I saw that my wild plum tree out in the back pasture still has some plums on it, they were about the size of a nickle, and only about 20 of them , but it's a start
That's on my edible outdoors to do list too. That's just a few, but it's soooooo worth it. Our old plum tree in Wisconsin gave us about 40 or 50 before we left.
