TFW you look find a book on your bookshelf that would have been really useful a week ago, but you forgot that you bought it
Look at this cactus! I don't remember the name, one of the many Mammillaria which doesn't really narrow it down much. From last Sunday's botanical gardens excursion.
Opuntia fragilis is seen in dappled sunlight as I take a look at the new growth that has emerged in the last ten days. The pads are protected by many clusters of spines that require any weeding or maintenance be done with long tweezers. This cactus lives in this pot outside all year, so the soil is fast draining so the winter rains don’t drown it.
I took this photo to show to my cacti, to inspire them to dream a little bigger. #cacti #Bloomscrolling
This experiment with cacti seeds has been a total failure. More than 90 days, growing lights, proper humidity ... and norhing!!! I am disgusted. #cacti

Got the rest of the spines in. Tried to work on the other bird painting… it just wasn’t working. Painting can really be a jerk, sometimes.

Getting the skin in. Paintings that are moving right along rarely bother me by being unfinished… this one does. It’s mostly the eye. I need to take care of that.
