Introducing my Cacti

Cacti are some of  the plants that I will be adventuring into now that I live in an apartment. 
These spiky little plants are so cute! If they were candy, I would've eaten them long ago!


This one above is one of  my favorites, it's only about 5" high. 
It's like having a souvenir of the tall ones in Mexico. 
I will call it Little Senor Nopal. Back home in Mexico cacti are called
 nopales and are edible. Who can forget those tacos de nopales!



 And here are all of them that I got. I'm a little late posting about them. 
(We single moms tend to get soo busy sometimes!)
 But I got them back in September. 

 One more picture of  Little Senor Nopal. 
I was worried that something was wrong with it because of the white stains.
 But it's been a couple of months now and Little Senor Nopal is still up and going!

    we have prickly pear that grows naturally here, but the last couple of years they've gotten a fungus/disease. still getting new growth popping up so i hope they can get rid of it.
