| Very quiet on here these days, it must be Winter in OZ !  I just got back from another US trip where again I saw some wonderful plants. Here's one to get you thinking - What am I ?  | |

| I reckon it's a Pediocactus peeblesianus v. fickeiseniae or a Toumeya papyracantha. Any chance of a closeup? | |

| You're right with the first one Lachy ! It's my namesake, Navajoa "fickendansiae". Here's a closer look -  We did find some Toumeyas also...these guys are tough to see though...  | |

I'd guess that those would be about 4 years old or so as they were quite plump... Here's a bigger gnarly old Toumeya we found..  And a bigger Fick -  And I'll leave you this one to try and figure out.....    | |

| I'd say HN is probably right on, but if not, I'd still bet on it being a Mamm sp. | |
