I like what I'm seeing so far! Not as many of these as Echinocereus, but some really fun plants none-the-less.

If not, I'll change it to something else. :wink:
Of course!
It's a small and/or low growing Opuntoid, so it certainly qualifies.

I have 3 opuntias but they're big!
Sounds to me like your going to need to expand your Opuntia repertoire. I'm sure I could help out in that regard. :wink:
