Okay for the orange, but for one after that i better say before i forget is mabey a cacti oddity not so much monstrose cacti but a cacti that suddenly turns monstrose in one part or grows an extra appendage from a point which looks freaky.

Ok, the "Orange" contest went quite well. Anybody have any preferences for the next one?

A quick brainstorm...
How about black and white?
Before and after?
Juxtaposed?
Free for all?
Night bloom?

Those are good suggestions,
how about the best display of 2 or more different plants,like in bowls or beds.
Or the best prostrate/creeping cacti?
Forget the dog...Beware of the plants!!!

How about a contest for the best planimetric view of a cactus crown? Some of those columnars are pretty mesmerizing.

Hi everyone!
I have a suggestion. What about a winner's contest? We have done 20 contests up to now, and I would like to introduce a contest with all entries that have won. What do you think?
