Hello Everyone. I'm so glad I found your forum as I am a cactus lover and have been doing some collecting of different species. The reason I'm posting today, {other than to introduce myself- My name is Linda and I live In the southeastern United States} is that I have badly sunburned my favorite cactus. Being a newbie to the cactus world, I had no idea this could happen. Of course, in looking back, it seems so obvious. Doesn't it always? I'm posting a few pics in hopes of some suggestions as what to do and whether or not you folks think it can be saved. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Linda

I think Euphorbia lactea forma cristata. Not a cactus!

For the sunburn, take a look at the 'Pests & Disease'-page: http://www.cactiguide.com/cactipests/#sunburn
