Twin blooms on beaver tail prickly pear
This native plant (Opuntia basiliaris), "beavertail cactus" is very popular in landscapes and public plantings too. The large flowers are an incredibly bright magenta pink and occur in early spring. So beautiful!

The whole flock of slug/snail doom.
"One of the very best methods of pest control! I used to pen my chickens in my gardens abt 2 months before planting - They de-bugged, fertilized and cultivated all for no charge!!!"
