Thanks for your comments, and what you think the berries look like lol ...

John, I've been growing cacti since I was a teenager in the 1960s. I love them :o)

This is a great photo Hywel, so if those little sausage/chilli looking things are berries, will you beable to grow new cactus from them? very interesting.

They always dry up so I've never been able to try. The pollinating insects for cacti don't live in Wales ... lol ...

In the fifties butchers used to sell sausage things like that - they were called Polony. It was a sort of potted meat stuff but you didn't eat the skin as far as I remember..

I think I remember something like that, I never tasted it though.
I haven't got this now, it died :(
