Here's a couple of out take photos that where submitted for the last article of H.P.I. (May 2008 Issue # 74). These where not included in the article I submitted which was subsequently published.
Document space allowances and topic relivance where likely the reasons. So here they are for the arid gardeners in the crowd.

Cheers, Barrie.

Barrie, I dig the Cylindropuntia spinosoir... The cutting I recieved last year did not survive the zone 5 conditions...
Looks good, love the coastal B.C. cacti! I wonder how the moderate climate effects their growth rate? (i.e. do they growe more slowly then cold winter/hot summer areas??)
Thanks for sharing!

Good question Paul ... I do know these grow fairly rapidly in most cases here and always grow larger with a drink of water now and then. Many of these surprized me when I first started growing cacti as I'd always believed them to be slow. I was soon enlightened.

Cheers, Barrie.
