MELOCACTUS CURVISPINUS.

in Palnet3 years ago
In my long walks along the coasts of my region an endless Xerophilous life extends to infinity, so many Cactaceae stand out the Melocatus that in the distance seem the silhouette of an obese goblin I have noticed that many elderly Melocatus are already dying and therefore I I decided to extract its fruits, germinate its seeds and reforest this wonderful place that gives me so much satisfaction, so many images and a lot of creative energy.
