peterb

Tephrocactus articulatus var. papyracanthus

Fockea edulis

Pachycereus pringlei Spine Growth

I found this coming up the day after this contest started.

T. erectoclada. Thought this was going to be a flower, but it turned into another cladode:

Jordi

Euphorbia coerulescens

Lithops, of course

Opuntia pilifera

Here is the first bud of the year, probably a new pad but it could be a flower bud too. It's an O. engelmannii and also take note that it was the first bud I found of the year, 2 weeks ago it was really cold, all the sudden it's warm!
