I'd like to know too,especially from Southwestern guys that see the real stuff.I've done some searches and found quite a bit but would like to be sure its good looking stuff before buying.It's hard to tell from small pictures.

most you will find doesn't look too good, plastic with spikes, you could always use the real thing, it dries up but a minimal amount of water and it springs back to life, let me know we have acres of it! I wonder if you could feed it preserve it ? We have small round ones also.

I am in the process of molding some from live clusters.  I plan on having both rigid and foam for sale in the near future.

Jim, Have you found anything that duplicates our Montana cactus? I would use that alot if it was available. I found a web site awhile back that had a bunch of artificial cactus, but it was all that southwest stuff.
