@Mikal I was thinking about this the other day. It's something I'd like to see, but living in the *ahem* #pnw, I don't have much to contribute. #Hashtag search shows #Cacti, #CactiOfTheDay and #CactiCommunity need more posts 😁.

Opuntia monacantha, commonly known as drooping prickly pear, cochineal prickly pear, or Barbary fig, is a species of plant in the family Cactaceae native to South America.
