Description
This is most likely an Old Man Cactus (Cephalocereus senilis), it was growing in my mother’s garden in California. My mom and dad cultivated many species of cactus for their cactus garden and this was an unusual one with its wispy needles.
These are a columnar type cactus native to Mexico and grow well in Mediterranean conditions. The conditions in my parent's area of California were great for this one. There are sharper needles under the wooly hair like covering. I processed this in black and white to give a sense of movement.
