Introduction
Hello everyone, I just recently came across this website a while back. Because of my piqued interest in all sorts of cacti. Right now I don't have a cactus with me, but I've collected some books on identifying, as well of taking care of them. My name is James for those who wanted to know, and I look foward to your responses.
