This morning I was greeted with the Grand Finale of the Sea Urchin flowers, something akin to the finale of a fireworks show. Spectacular! Seven flowers opening at the same time rarely happens,
usually there are only 1-3 at a time. (the 7th one hidden by an agave.)
Against the Agave.
Love the abstract below.
Below: Against Barrel cactus and Gazania on the right.
The image above is one of two times this year that one
plant had two flowers on it.
This flower is in a pot, thus the different background.
And one last version. Until next year . . .

Beautiful photographs of a fleeting spectacle. Cacti are such spectacular blooms.
These images are beautiful. Never realized there was a plant/flower called sea urchin. Only from a cactus/succulent…...
