Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

The cacti are:

Echinocereus triglochidiatus v. mojavensis

Opuntia basilaris

Escobaria leei

Escobaria vivipara

Escobaria vivipara v. buoflama

Echinocereus x roetteri

Mammillaria wrightii

And the two yuccas are:

Yucca torreyi and Yucca schidigera.

I got them from Roger who runs http://www.rockgardenplants.com

He's a super nice guy. I highly recommend ordering from him.

I would check them out they have good prices and a great selection. 😀 They also have a outlet in Washington.

Regards,
Jay

Good selection 😀 Most of those have done very well here 😀 Let me know how that Opuntia basilaris does? I have a couple of other basilaris that doe very well, but I don't think I have one like that. So...if it makes it let me know 😀
