I didn't use to be a fan of cactus plants, but I'm starting to incorporate them more into my gardens for the variety of texture, and of course their drought/heat tolerance and ability to keep the nibbling critters away.

I think I will take some tongs and move a few paddles to a container along the front walk. Its flowers are such a pale yellow. They are not as spectacular as your cacti, but you have the climate for those,and I don't. (4 inches of rain this morning and more on the way).
