Cactus Blooms and garden center wildlife Posted by Tom in PA on June 14, 2025, 7:25 pm My in ground prickly pear has bloomed for the first time. Last summer was the first summer in ground. It breezed through our winter with a very cold January. Hopefully the new prickly pear will do just as well. Here is a picture. This is a little off topic. The picture is from our local garden center though. I believe these guys are red eared sliders. They were sunning themselves the other day. Just think it is a neat picture.

Re: Cactus Blooms and garden center wildlife Posted by Keith N. IL on June 15, 2025, 1:27 pm, in reply to "Cactus Blooms and garden center wildlife " Tom, nice blooms. The Prickly Pear is one tough cactus. I like your pics. We have turtles basking in the sun in our pond all the time. I like seeing them.

I love them but if I look at them I get stabbed Love the tartarugas. They look like an Appalachian box species
