I stopped by here last fall for the first time. It has a good selection of cacti and succulents as well as other plants. The cacti are mostly southwest and Mexican terrestrial species that do well in the climate.

Water and restrooms available at the entrance and above by the shade house. Wear decent shoes as the cactus area trails are mostly decomposed granite and a little slippery.
