COVER: The symmetry of cacti is one of their most striking features; the
thickening of the stem and multiplication of "ribs" with areoles often
create pronounced patterns, usually spiralled. The absence of obscuring
leaves emphasizes such patterns even more.
Ferocactus glaucescens (DC.) Britt. & Rose is found on limestone
in torrid canyons at many localities in the Mexican states of Hidalgo,
Queretaro, San Luis Potosi, and Guanajuato. Its bluish epidermis affords
protection against the harsh light and heat of these habitats. Usually
fiercely armed, it is sometimes nearly spineless, as in the present plant,
a cultivar known as 'Inermis'. Photo by J. N. Trager, Huntington Botanical Gardens. |
