From my garden. Can someone tell me the species name please. could you also photograph the mother plant of this fruit, if its in your garden..the fruit …the mother should also be around!!! Opuntia Sp is right. Thank you …. The plants in my garden are the same as this image I found using google Opuntia Indica Ficus. Could be Opuntia dillenii.
09052011GS1 Opuntia for ID elatior or dillenii??: Two species of Opuntia are reported from Delhi: O. dillenii and O. elatior. Could this be one of these or any other species Growing on old Delhi ridge, up to 2.5 m tall with strongly flattened phylloclads, obovate in shape with up to 20 cm long segments; spines 4-7 per ariole, flattened at base, narrowed above tinged yellowish-brown, up to 2.5 cm long. Flowers orange yellow about 5-6 cm across.
I think this is Opuntia dillenii… kindly wait for further confirmations.
