We saw a lot of beautiful spring cactus flowers while visiting Arizona and the California Desert. We published pictures of some of the most beautiful flowers we saw in the desert but yesterday and today in our own patio there were some flowers that are arguably just as beautiful in their own way. Take, for example, this ‘Rose Quartz’ cactus flower.
This cactus is a cross between a ‘Peanut Cactus’ and something called ‘Lobvia’ according to the tag on the little pot. These are native to mountainous regions in South America, but they seem to like it here too. Click on the image to maxmagnificate.
