Thorny Beauty
Have you ever seen the flower of a cactus before?
This is the smallest cactus we have. One stalk.
OK, how about two stalks of cactus flower on a single cactus plant?
How about 6?
The most we had were 8 on a single plant. These flowers bloom only in the early morning, and only for a few hours. My dad snapped these photos before he went to work.
We bought it many years ago. That time, cactus planting was a craze, I think back in the end of 80s. I bought one, my brother bought one and my parents bought one. Mine survive and is still around, and those in the photos are the 'great grand child'. Nice, eh?
