"Eve's Pin"

Its stems are deep green, un-segmented, and cylindrical. They can grow to be 2” – 3” inches in diameter and are covered with interesting looking tubercles along the upper stems. These protrusions explain why the plant has its common pins or needles names. They are sharply pointed and semi-cylindrical. Eve’s Pin Prickly Pear leaves are long-lasting and may persist for a year or more.
