Opuntias are lacking big time!

Post by daiv »

These were not in the list until a couple days ago, but there are more Opuntia species missing than anything. I know they aren't the most popular cactus to photograph, so this might be a tall order!

Thanks John! I will probably want to add those varieties soon. Right now I'm pushing to get the species represented. Those Central American Opuntias are going to be the hardest to find I think.

Until i can get some of mine positively ID'd, the best i can offer at the moment would be additional pics of species already represented.

And i for one, do certainly enjoy taking pics of Opuntias :P Heck, i'm nutty enough to take pics of pics of Opuntias...

Ha! Funny stuff. I think ID is the biggest problem with this. Even if you do take pics, you have to be able to figure out what it is! #-o
