My monday post about what is going on around my home.

Even though we in Southern Arizona did not have much of a winter, not
enough rain and snow, Spring is really here !
This Prickly Pear Cactus just planted last year is covered with loads
of new pads and some buds. The Prickly pear that is next to this one
planted at the same time is covered with buds and a few new pads.
Each plant has a 70/30 split how strangely wonderful is that.

I love the color of the new growth and the tint of lavender on the
older pads.
We many not have all the spring flowers that burst on the trees and
pop out of the ground as some areas have, but we have our own Spring
and it is lovely.
If you check the middle of the cactus and near the bottom you will see
two pads that were chomped on by the Javelinas. They moseyed by the
first night after I planted them and had a taste. The pads never grew
bigger and they stayed the same small size.
