Opuntia lindheimeri or Texas prickly pear[1] is a species of cactus native to North America. It is native to Mexico and the United States, where its populations are primarily in Texas.[2]
Widespread taxonomic confusion has prevented a clear understanding of the true range of this species, resulting in significant publication discrepancies regarding both its western and eastern boundaries. According to Opuntia Web group, this species is typically found in more mesic habitats with deeper soils.[2]
