Yellow flowers appear on the ends of the spiny green pads, followed by purplish red fruit. Both the pads and the fruit are edible if you remove the spines and the seeds. It may overwinter outdoors if conditions are right as it does not like to stay wet.
The preference is full to partial sunlight (at least one-half day of sun), mesic to dry conditions, and sandy or rocky soil.
