Plants are not quite historical actors in their own right, but their properties help to shape human history. In turn, the trail of prickly pear in South Africa has been profoundly affected by the plant's biological characteristics. This explains why they were not peripheral to many people in the Eastern Cape, and why a wild, and sometimes invasive, plant from Mexico remains important to African women.
