The cactus garden at Joshua Tree National Park

by Jack Brummet

While it is called a garden, nothing was planted, or taken out of this garden.  Like many places the desert, the soil, and relative availability of water determines these odd gatherings of plants.  This cactus garden has several different kinds of cactus, but mainly cholla.  And they are nasty if you brush up against one--I did once years ago in the Sonoran desert.
