Backyard Blooms

That echinopsis cactus in my back yard is blooming again. Such beauty and you only get one day to enjoy it.

  1. Somehow the cycle of life for this bloom makes its beauty even more poignant.

  7. Mine has also bloomed, however this flower seems to have more petals so it must be a different species. It's gorgeous!
