    Got this recently. Hope it'll get through winters.

    The two Opuntias in the pic stay out all winter; they're starting to expand now. (Very small when I got them.)

      The garden centre I got it from (I don't normally buy from garden centres) told me they bought it from Holland. I think it originally originated from a nursery in America and there is some dispute over which type of Yucca it is.

        Well it looks like its spineless?
        So that narrows it down a bit.
