Spoiler alert: This was not taken in Sequim.
I love the desert in spring, which makes a quick visit to family in Arizona a double pleasure. I have many happy memories of spring wildflowers. This one, on a purple beavertail cactus, greeted me at the Phoenix airport. I had to post it since I consider cactus blossoms a special treat.
I agree that cacti blossoms are a special treat, and this one brightens anyone’s day. It’s a pure buttercup yellow.
What a coincidence! I posted cacti blossoms today too. 🙂 This purple Opuntia is fantastic, Kay!
Very pretty! How nice to capture a photo of it!
The cactus gardens in our southern states are so beautiful and perfect for desert landscaping.
