Colorado Native Cacti and Succulents
Just post pictures and locations of the cactus or succulents that you find in the Colorado wild. And if you want to check up on your finds periodically throughout the season to document any loss of environment, disease, predation, etc.

I would like to document all the different Colorado native cacti, succulents and other desert plants. Please help me document these amazing plants that thrive on very little water. I have become very passionate about wanting to document these plants(in some cases relocated plants from construction site) because of all the development that is happening to our beautiful land. For example: I was walking around looking at all these different more uncommon button style cacti all over this construction site for a luxury home in a gated community right next to Garden of the Gods Park and they spray painted quite a few cactus when marking the outline of the house. I asked the owner if I could relocate as many as I could and I was denied. The next day the entire lot was dug up and could just see chucks & pieces of cactus all over 😢 Please help me document and save some native Colorado cacti
