    Ok, you guys are killing me with curiosity...

    What's a cactus skeleton? We don't have those in New England, on Halloween or otherwise...

    Pictures would be great too - I just can't imagine petrified or calcified plant parts.

    Gin, that is a great picture of the tenuifolia! You are making me wanting more of these cactus mounts.

    That max. smells like coconut, right? I seem to remember that from one of my few encounters with them.
