    WOWSERS Daz :-D what an AWESOME beautiful spiky Beast haha :-D we absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE it, and the name suits it perfectly hahaha as it sure would molest anyone that gets near to it haha, Hans has one he brought over from Sweden its in the polytunnel and we have it at the back on the table with the other Cylindropuntias and Tephros and it grabs us every time we looked at it haha, but we LOVE them and yours has even longer awesome spines than Hans's, absolutely AWESOME unboxing video and filming Daz and awwww thanks so much for the credits at the end, and thanks so much for sharing your vicious and very spiny beautiful new Beast with us Daz, and Hans and I are sending you and beautiful Edith lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to England and Singapore for a fantastic new week ahead XXXX

      Thank you so much, Lyn 😊 Yeah the name suits it perfectly haha. That’s awesome you have one of these as well. I’ve been getting more into the Opuntia type cacti recently. I don’t know why, they’ve just started to appeal to me more for some reason lol. Thank you so much for watching and commenting as always, Lyn. And thank you so much again for your generous donation on BMC the other day ❤️ Have a wonderful day and new week from Edith & myself to you and Hans ❤️🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜

    Yep!! That's a wicked one!!! Hahaha!! I think for safeties sake I might have given a wider pot. That one looks like it's ready to bite!!! I remember from both Sonoran and Mojave deserts our shoes used to pick pieces of different chollas. Had a lady I did yard work for when I lived in Tucson as a kid, she wanted a full size cholla ( cylindropuntia fulgida) planted under her bedroom window cause she had prowler. So I had to dig one from the wash ( dry creek bed) next to her house. What a job!!! Had them in my knees and hands!! I wouldn't do it again if I had to!!! Ouch!!!! Hahaha!!! Yep , got fond memories of these guys!!! Thanks for sharing Daz!!! Great job handling that little monster!!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, to the UK 🇬🇧 and Singapore 🇸🇬 have a wonderful week ahead!!! Peace, Love, Plants!!!✌️💖🌵🌿🌻🌳🌸🍀🌴🌾💐🌱🌷🌹😃👍

      Thank you so much, Clyde 😊 I’m probably going to keep this plant small. I don’t want it growing into a big bush lol. Yeah these and those chollas would certainly make a good deterrent to anyone snooping around if you had them planted outside haha. Thank you for watching and commenting my friend.

    That sure is a prickly one😅👹It reminds me when I used to grow Tephrocacti, and when I bumped my hand into them the spines would stick in my skin. I even had an Opuntia microdasys years ago, and one day I was going to work and noticed a terrible itch in my underwear😰I stopped at every toilet to investigate, but couldn't find anything. It wasn't until I got home that my wife said that my underwear blew off the line and onto my Opuntia😂🙌

    That looks like it would put a serious hurting on a person, one of the more interesting cacti in my opinion, I have a Cylindropuntia cylindrica, made the mistake of grabbing a small cutting with my fingers, let's just say I have a very, very healthy respect for that cacti now. And yes, please keep us updated on it's progress, you and Edith have a great week.

    Oh yes... Teddy-bear cholla... I think everyone knows it by reputation and from David Attenborough's video: ua-cam.com/video/qK4G2KpmqFU/v-deo.html Your molesta may have the same type of spines but less densely distributed. It would be interesting to see one them in high magnification, if you happen to have access to a microscope... The question is how big it will grow? That is, at which point you will not be able to handle this cactus any more... ;-)

    • @Cactimania
      @Cactimania  Рік тому +1

      Yeah I’ve seen that video a few times. I don’t think I want one of those in the collection lol. Would be cool to see the spines under a microscope. I’ll probably keep this plant relatively small, I can always prune it and with how sought after it is here I can sell the cuttings. Thanks for watching and commenting 🌵☀️🌼🌸🌺🏜
