When Cacti Bloom!

 

There is something purely magical about the blooms on cacti.  That such ugly and hazardous plants can produce such beauty is one of nature's many miracles.  

I was lucky to catch these two beauties last weekend when I was at the garden.















The varieties of colors and shapes and sizes is just amazing.  Since they usually only last one day, taking photos of them is the only way to preserve their beauty.
