Originally posted by Bob Harris I sort of put all of the flat cacti into the Prickly Pear class I guess, same family?
Even closer -- same genus (
Opuntia), which includes not only the Beavertail but also all (?) the chollas. Actually all the cacti are in the same family. But within that it can get confusing (to me at least, as we only have one native species here) -- for example there are various "barrel" cacti but not all in the same genus.
Originally posted by Bob Harris Hey, just get onto that plane and head out west, you must have some more business out here, right.
Gotta see if I can scrounge something up ...
