Front cover: Ferocactus histrix with Agave lechuguilla and a glimpse of a monstrose Pachycereus schottii in the background. This photo was taken by Root Gorelick in the Phoenix Desert Botanical Garden and shows a very large, mature plant, quite different in appearance to the seedlings, which have only a few strong ribs.
