Thanks Wellington. I found this growing in a neighbor's yard. All you have to do is cut a piece and bury it to grow right?

You don't even need to plant it. Just lay it on the ground and it will root all by itself.It looks very similar to one that I grow up here.Picture 3297.jpg So few spines it can be handled pretty much freely without using any special tools or gloves.
