Image taken in Pueblo Colorado. Shows macro view of a cluster of cacti in a garden. Liked how all of the spines of the cacti, intertwine and gloss over the green with their white needles.A cactus is a member of the plant family Cactaceae, a family comprising about 127 genera with some 1750 known species of the order Caryophyllales. The word `cactus` derives, through Latin, from the Ancient Greek κάκτος, kaktos, a name originally used by Theophrastus for a spiny plant whose identity is not certain.
