Surprise! It's a Prickly Pear Cactus.

I was working in my garden, and I saw a strange seedling. Upon closer inspection, I saw a cactus. Cacti are not native to my area, but I do eat prickly pears, a.k.a "tunas", from time to time. A seed must have sprouted. I am excited about my little surprise. I removed the seedling from the garden because it was shaded and I was afraid I might step on it. I hope that I can get it to grow, and in a few years I might have my own homegrown cactus fruit.
