You have a great selection of cacti there. Along with your yuccas your yard looks great. I hope to make it by your place in July to see it first hand.

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.

I haven't taken a pic of it yet. It hasn't really done much. It wasn't looking to good when i planted it but it's looking better now just no new growth on it yet. I'll take a pic of it in a day or two.

Jay the one I sent you is the true Basilaris var basilaris (common beavertail of the south west) but this one is special because it can handle very cold temps and even the same type normal do not live below 4f. It will grow much bigger pads then the one I sent you, I sent you a small pad to keep the wieght down.
When yours gets bigger, I would love to have a start from it
