Cactus Flowers Everywhere

 

I was at the Desert Botanical Garden this last weekend and the garden was simply full of blooms everywhere I looked.  It was a feast for the eyes.  These pretty claret cup blooms are always a treat to see.

All the different types of prickly pear cactus were putting on a spring show.  I love the yellow ones with the red centers.

These pink ones have a sort of striped effect showing up on the outside of the blooms.  



All of the hedgehog cactus were simply bursting with blooms.

It was a pleasure to see all these blooms.

We were sorry we had to leave Tucson when we did - we missed all the flowers.
