Welcome to the cactus and succulent forum. You already do have a nice collection of pretty good sized cacti and succulents. Have you been growing these plants for many years? I hope, you will enjoy our group of plant enthusiasts and am glad, you decided to join. :)

I actually only had the barrel cactus in the back far corner to begin with. Then I got really into it and start collecting.

Welcome, Eagle, to a truly outstanding Forum! If you're already thinking of a 6 x 30', better start looking for the 1/2 acre plot :lol: As you can tell from Harriet or Sharpy (the rest didn't want to scare you yet :wink: ), you'll quickly start wondering "How did I get so many plants?" I've only been on this ride for 3 yrs, & I've stopped counting plants -- but it take 4 hrs to H20 them all! Endless experience here, as well as great humor, not to mention gorgeous pics!
