    Zigs, as usual you are right! That is the "grey beard" we had seen. Thank you for identifying it.
    Your cacti flowers are lovely, by the way.

    Thought it might be Jane :) Tetters bought me some seedlings year before last but they didn't look very healthy when we got them and they died shortly after :(

    If you see any seeds we'd be interested :setc_079:

    Aww, glad you like them :)

    5 new points of growth on this Opuntia, hoping a few might be flowers and not just new pads. 2 or 3 would be the average if they were just pads :)
