This is a slideshow of six types of flowers we are currently seeing on and around our place here in Wickenburg. The first image is that of a cholla flower close-up followed by flower-topped ocotillo canes, a yellow prickly pear flower, palo verde flowers, a hot pink cactus flower cluster and a Mexican Bird of Paradise flower pod.

More flowers are coming. We have already seen the first of the saguaro cactus flowers up the road and expect our big saguaro to come into bloom this summer. We really love the spring and summer flowers here in the desert.
