Good morning from Cactusland, Arizona...


Don't you just love this prickly pear in bloom?  I took the first photo yesterday, and Doc took this one of me this morning standing beside this beauty.  He went down to see it in bloom, too.  We have a big bay window out in the patio with cactus planted in window boxes all along it.  Need I say more?  The essence of Arizona, the bloomin' prickly pear!

    I used to have a few small versions of the prickly pear cactus around. Loved seeing it bloom. Great photos! (Hugs) Indigo

    Yes I do love it. It looks a little different then what we have here but ours is in full bloom at the ranch. Nice picture of you too. Hope you are having a good morning. Paula
