OP132: Cylindropuntia leptocaulis v. inermis COLD HARDY CACTUS

There's nothing prettier than a Christmas Tree Cholla in full fruit!  This form from David Salman's personal collection has virtually no spines making it very user-friendly.  Hardy to zones 5/6.  Plant with another leptocaulis strain such as OP024 or OP118 to ensure cross-pollination for heavy fruit-set. The slender, twiggy stems make a wonderful architectural addition to the desert garden.  Fascinating green blossoms in June are followed by abundant red berries all winter. 24-48 inches tall and wide.  Sold in a 2.5-inch pot.   Photo is of the spined form.  New photos to follow.
