It has been taken a while before I was finding the succulents growing in Amarillo. It was not easy but I made it looks easy...

Cacti first? but I recognized the Cholla cactus only. There are some oputia too. Would appreciated to know the species exact names. Collected "the figs" for sure.

Yucca plants. I'm not sure about so called "elata" but I tried at least

elata?

elata?

Other stuff:

Dasilirion texensis?

Have no idea what's a ... it is.

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.

looks like Aaron did a great job ID-ing those plants.

This one reminds me of a western Mahonia
