Got some new cacti to replace the ones that died this winter

I ordered 2 Echinocereus Reichenbachiis. These arrived way bigger than I thought they would. I'm liking these a lot.

I got this opuntia. I really like the spines on it. It's opuntia phaecantha hystricina 'bernalillo'

I also got a potato cactus and an escobaria missouriensis. From what I've heard, none of these have to be protected in the winter, but don't quote me on it.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
