Prickly Pear (Opuntia) flowers have an amazing variety of colors, sometimes on the same plant. Often the colors of the flower will change from day to day and even from one time of the day to later in the same day. Like all cactus flowers, the blooms only last a day or at most two or three before closing. Once the flower in pollinated, the plant will produce a "fruit" containing hundreds of seeds.
