An upright cactus like a saguaro but not a saguaro.
These are growing in a damaged area.


Beautiful little parasitic Cactaceae

Interesting images. Could they be a graft? I think cacti lend themselves to that sort of thing. Were these in the wild or part of someone's landscaping?

I agree that it looks like an Organ Pipe cactus, or maybe a senita (or are they the same?)

Looks like new growth on a saguaro.

It's interesting and pretty! It's a different color. Is it a relative? So what's a damaged area?


I meant that the spike balls are growing on areas of the cactus that have been damaged somehow, someway!

I think you're correct! I went back to look at it again, and I think it's an Organ Pipe cactus! Thank you.

I'm not too familiar with cactus plants but that does appear different from those I do see.


Yep! Hanging out with the Saguaros but definitely different!
