Ceci n'est pas une pipe

At the Ethel M cactus garden.



I would have posted more pictures, but to my chagrin, the cactii were swaddled in Christmas lights (visible wrapped around the Saguaro cactus pictured above). The cactus garden is a bit run down, with plenty of signs for people to stay on the path that seemingly get ignored to the detriment of the plants.

There are provisions for supplemental water as well. Apparently Las Vegas is too arid even for some of the cactii.

Still, I recommend a visit.
