A Promise....

.....of future beauty.  A bud on a large cactus.
 The bud is beautiful so I bet the bloom will be too.

Soooo pretty! The color is divine. I'll bet your right about the forthcoming bloom. I hope it was nearby so you can take another pic when it's full.

You will need to watch the bud daily, as you could miss the flower if you miss a day.

How wonderful to catch this in that tender moment before the blossom opened.

Beautiful shot, Sharon!
I had a nice surprise yesterday: one more cactus is blooming for the first time (I keep this for 7 years) and the flowers are gorgeous! I will post them on my 'nature at home' blog tomorrow!" :-)
