In this photo we can only say that its an Opuntia species... get more photo to identify the species level..
agree with Usha di ..., here lots of photos which are not even a quality of identifying the family are posted again and again for identification (resurfing) ... and also resurfing for the identified species.... pls find some solution for these.. or send it to only experts, bcoz every one do not have so much time to read the same post again and again.. regards, On Mon, Aug 29, 2011 at 8:19 PM, ushadi Micromini <[email protected] > wrote: > Dear All: I honor Dr. Gurucharan ji' s opinion... > but since he is sending it out again means... he is not convinced himself, > is that it, Guruchran ji? > > I do not wish to contradict you or other erstwhile botanists, BUT in > Medicine If we did diagnosis a picture of a lump ... we would be > nowhere... same must be true for other branches of science.... including > botany... and the botany specialist/s should not be put into a situation > such as this... it behooves anybody asking for ID ... to show the mother > plant... especially since its in your own garden....!!!!!
