Bob transplanted several paddles from a beavertail cactus that was growing up on the hill behind our house. It has been about a year and a half and all of the transplants seem to be doing well. This individual has grown from a few paddles (maybe four to six) to all of these paddles in that time. The cactus is about a foot and a half tall and is spreading nicely on the area by the RV drive west of the house. Click on the image to enlarge.
