1,2,3 ...

It is really exotic, well done Hywel.

That is so beautiful!

Nice to see its progress and how pretty it is even though it is tiny.

Isn't that lovely?

That is a little beauty Hywel...

Thank you all for reading about my cactus :)

I love the bright orange against the dark green - A striking color combination.

I can see now how small theflowers are now it's against the 50p looks beautiful with the extra flowers.

I remember that one, Hywel. It is a striking colour and photographs well!!

(Do you ever pick up any minute "hairs" from some of your cacti? They can be worse than the cacti with vicious-looking thorns.)

Thank you everyone :)

Eirlys yes they are called glochids. Opuntias and a few others have them. They irritate your skin and are difficult to remove.

Its very pretty Hywel, and great that there are three flowers on such a tiny thing - well done that cactus! Lets hope it never gets damaged by developers. Don't you think developers is the wrong word for them - sounds as though they are improving on the original rather than destroying it

Have you tried elastoplast or sellotape on glochids(works on lily pollen as well,as long as nobody touches it first)

Thank you.
I'll have to try sellotape next time I bump into one of my Opuntias :)
