Big Bend Trip
Posted: Fri Nov 28, 2014 5:58 pm
I recently made a trip to Big Bend National Park. Here are some images of the cacti species I saw. I am not very good at identifying cacti species, but please feel free to correct my novice guesses. I really wanted to find a lophophora but failed to. The only rare cactus I found was an ariocarpus fissuratus! And I was only able to spot it because it was in bloom. I felt so lucky to find one
I 'd like to share these images (even though I am not sure of many of the species names) simply because they are so nice to see in their native habitat.
The first group of images were taken on a high elevation hike in the Chisos mountains::: The next group were found in desert low lands ::
