Cactus Monday - Cactus Spine - Teri Casper


You often see the spines I put all over my cacti so I thought it was time to bring this sketch back.
When I first got interested in cactus I wondered just how the spines grew so I got up close and personal.
This is what a fish hook barrel cactus spine looks like.
Yikes! Looks deadly.
