Cactus Flower







It is hard to believe that this spiny succulent can appear so restrained all year and then produce such a magnificent crimson red flower clustered with many long stamen ..and then within 24 hrs loose this beauteous floral fruit and return to its somewhat restrained quiessence

Craggles..thanks Dad (dec) for this wonderful plant
