What a difference a week makes. I was out at Cape Royal yesterday giving a geology talk and noticed these Hedgehog cactus blooming. Wonder what will be blooming next week.

Blooming cactus is a blessing, lending swaths of color in the desert. Lovely!!!
Oohhh…so pretty they are!
The flowers are lovely, but I don't think I would like to get my fingers in the way of this plant!! Diane
Ah, summer blooms!
Beautiful capture of the blossoms and their shadows too. 🙂
Oh I love the desert blooms. Always delicate and colorful. MB
From snow to cactus blooms – must be deciding it's summer there!
I am always amazed about how beautiful cactusses and succulents are when they flower specially cinsiddering thay they are plants associated with dry areas.
As you know, I love cacti and their flowers, even if I don't see many of the latter. The hedgehog cactus may be the one I "deflowered" accidentally last year; the flowers look similar…
Gaelyn: Truly a beautiful bloom on the Cactus.
It's always an adventure to check for the latest blooms. These are beautiful.
