This Saturday I started out planning to find a very cool Saguaro I took a picture of years ago. Now that I have a decent digital camera I wanted to replace the old polaroid snapshot I had. I spent a couple hours driving up and down dirt roads northwest of Tucson looking for it. Even tore a hole in my jeans slipping through a barbed wire fence to get to one that looked like it. But alas, I couldn't find it :-) I was bummed!
    But, Bachs Cactus Nursery was on my way home. I stopped in and immediately felt all better :-) And joy of joys I had my camera with me! Bachs is one of the earliest cacti and succulent nurseries I visited in Tucson. They mostly cater to landscapers but have a nice retail greenhouse too. They carry all the usual fare with a nice selection of exotics thrown in. And I love their Specimen House.
    Unfortunately I only had one memory card with me or I would have taken a whole lot more pictures. It was also the day before Easter and very busy so unfortunately I couldn't find anyone free to ID some of this stuff for me. If you have any ID's please contact me HERE
