Early Cactus bloom in our Backyard

Opuntia Hybrid?
Opuntia macrocentra, Longthorn Prickly Pear, Texas
Echinocereus pentalophus, Ladyfinger Cactus
Claret Cup Hedgehog



Trichocereus



Strawberry Hedgehog, Arizona




Cane Cholla, Arizona
Trichocereus

Harisia sp.
Chamacereus silvestrii from Argentinia



Beavertail Opuntia, Arizona

From our cactus garden. Most are part of the Arizona landscape and grow somewhere on the grounds without much more water than nature provides. Some are from Bach's Cactus Nursery and grow better in pots with just a little more care, but all love the Arizona sunshine.
