<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><P><SPAN><SPAN>Native to central Mexico, Aaron’s beard cactus is a multi-stemmed shrub growing up to 2.5 m tall. The light green to grey-green egg-shaped pads grow to 30cm x 26cm and contain multiple white spines to 4cm long. It reproduces by stem fragments, which are spread by becoming attached to animals, footwear and vehicles; and from dumped garden waste. If permitted to spread, Aaron’s beard cactus could invade vast areas, much like prickly pear. </SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV> |
