Cactus Blossoms~Cactus Monday 112309


I found this beautiful cactus blooming at the Living Desert Reserve in May one year. I couldn't resist a closer look, like many of the insects that visit cacti. While I don't have any cactus in my own garden, I always enjoy seeing them at the Living Desert. See the blossom that hasn't opened yet? Cactus Monday for November 23, 2009.

I just love orange/tangerine blossoms - they always seem to show up best against foliage. Great pic!
