Most prickly pear has yellow flowers however this 'bush' is full of pinkish blossoms! The bees love the pollen and nectar. Known as nopal in the Spanish prickly pear can be torched to burn off the spines... cattle or goats will feast on the cactus. The next year the cactus has regrown but now is twice as thorny.
