Here’s another fasciated cactus, this time a Cylindropuntia fulgida var. mamillata. (I should say ‘probably’ because I’m relatively new the intricate differences in the many cholla varieties.) You can see a mix of fasciated and typical growth in these pictures, as commonly occurs with fasciation.




And right next to it is another one, apparently propagated from the first, as you can see someone planted a fasciated pad, more like opuntia (prickly pear) than cylindropuntia.
