Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. A palm oasis can also be seen in the background to the left of the photograph. Specimen photograph of an Opuntia bigelovii (also known as Cylindropuntia bigelovii and teddy-bear cholla) growing in Palm Canyon, one of the Indian Canyons. The Opuntia bigelovii is a cactus native to California, Nevada, Arizona, and northwestern Mexico. The cactus is referred to as teddy-bear cholla due to its soft and fuzzy apperance caused by the fact that the plant's stems are completely covered in spines.
