| I have some from Michigan Zone 5. I would be willing to trade them for some other cactus cutting(s) or the like. Here's what the cuttings look like: http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j76/moosesinvade/Picture.jpg I think they're something like Beavertail Cactus, but I'm not 100% sure. They are Opuntia though, I believe. -Cameron |

I can get some other varietiies. :Like cows tougue( O lindheimeria var linguiformis) and a neddleless waxy one, and a large pad fluttery thing.The lastwo I don't think are native. |

| Hi, I have some wild opuntia natives I could trade, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas types. I live in Oklahoma and was given some by friends in neighboring states. I would be interested in what cactus cuttings you have. |
