Anya, if you have a moment, Sp-member
'tigerlilly' has a recent photo of a
cacti plant posted. Is it a Teddy Bear

LINK. Love your photos!!

	Hasn't voted	Thanks Larry. I'm sure it's not a Teddy. It may be a Cane Cholla, but it doesn't say where this was taken (which desert?), elevation or anything. The yellow things are fruits. Cheers.
