Fishman65 and I have decided to start a gardening thread for pics, tips and other green thumb discussion.

Here's some pics of my cacti that bloomed this year:

These look lovely Vee well done!! And in all the years my Mum grew cacti, not one of them flowered. As you say it must be your climate. My own memories from childhood concerning cacti are painful ones, some have such lethal spines don't they.

LOL Yes, out here we often use the phrase "hug a cactus" to mean something painful or uncomfortable. One thing I love about socal is that you can grow tropical plants, cacti and succulents all year long.
