Cactus flower
Taken recently at Seattle’s Volunteer Park Conservatory. The amazing irony of a cactus in bloom! The flowers are very small, perhaps a centimeter or so, or less than half an inch.

Lovely cactus, the flowers have that glossy papery look.
Stunning flowers!

Thanks for telling me about this post. I don’t use a linky anymore for Cactus Monday as the players dwindled to nothing but be sure and tell if you post something as I will always come and enjoy.
