I found something new on my recent walks at the Desert Botanical Garden. The sign on this calls it simply "Twisted Cactus" but the official name is Cereus forbesii 'Spiralis'. Twisted cactus is much easier to say. It certainly is very twisted indeed.
I'm not sure if this is new to the garden or if I just hadn't noticed it before. Either way, it is certainly an interesting species. As many times as I walk the garden trails, it seems I can always find something new to see.

Have never seen one like this, must be a new one.
Strange sight. It's all new to me.
And it is blooming. Interesting plant.
And you caught it at blossom time! So unusual, Sharon.
So unusual...I have never seen one!
What an unusual shaped cactus Sharon, it must be new, you know your Botanical Gardens too well to have missed it 😉
Super cool! I've never seen anything like that.
How beautiful, never seen such a cactus.
Fascinating!
Beautifull and different, it's new to me too.
Spectacular!
