My holidays in the Algarve are almost ending so I will take some cuttings of the local flora to my greenhouse in the uk :) already have some hibiscus cuttings to try and root and now I'm getting some wild opuntia cuttings :)ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1438900488.351793.jpg

Nice,they are not hard to grow. Just cut the root end and plant in some cactus substrate. Although your looks to have some root on them, I would try just planting them with out cutting. If nothing happens, then cut.
