Don, is that cactus?

I have some before and after shots of my cactus.  Not sure who eats them but we had a bumper crop this year and most have disappeared.  Squirrels?  Possum?

Of the first 4 dozen only 5 or 6 remain.

Looks like something sucked the life out of them. A cactus vampire.

Don't have luck with those.

Someone gave me what looked to me like some kind of aloe plant. I stuck it on the corner of the house. Didn't even plant it, just set it there. It started to grow and bloomed. I didn't know things like that got flowers. Still don't know exactly what it is.

The plant looks like Aloe but not the flower stalk.  Weird, usually they are a single stalk with one group of flowers creating an inverted cone of red or orange tubes.

If it is Aloe, after the flowers 'pass', you can cut off the stalk and the plant should live and "bloom" again.

Century plants die after blooming but your plant looks too small and colorful to be a century plant (Agave).

I like cactus and will send some more.  I can't get down to take photos like these any more  but have a few from past times.  I've never seen any that have been eaten
