This cactus is called Indian Fig. They grow really fast. In fact, people were giving away the "pads" and we took them. When we got home we just planted them in the ground.
Next year, there were a lot more pads. And the year after, even more.
However, they are the right height for the Javelinas. A couple of weeks ago we noticed that the "pigs" came through and munched them badly!
You can see where they have eaten. Good thing we didn't spend a fortune on these cactus just to have them destroyed. It's easy to spend a lot on cactus as some are really expensive, but beautiful.
