RE: Magnificent Montana Flora 2017 Edition Volume II
The prickly pear stays very small out here, I've never seen them any bigger than in those photos. I will try the fruit this year! Good advice on the books. I do have a nice book on prep that I need to delve into.
I thought you were the person with the plan for using your two books in combination! That is a good pair you have. And you are right -- a third book on preparation would help. Not knowing what to do with a harvest can be a big block.
I will say this about preparing cactus -- don't clean up with a dishcloth and then put it into your laundry with your underwear! You won't find that in any book, lol. You can guess how I know that! ; )
Lol, that is some good advice! Now I need to get a map and mark where I find all my specimens along with my 3 books!
Making maps is really helpful! Then the longer you live in an area, the more the whole place becomes your own personal grocery store!
