Cactus bloom

Everywhere I go these days I seem to be keeping my eye out for cactus blooms. Probably because the ones in my own yard are getting really sparse these days! Summer truly has set in and although our Monsoon season is just around the corner, it is hard to imagine rain when it is 109 degrees outside.

I saw this bloom at a local hospital- so huge and just gorgeous this cactus is really something! My job gets me over here frequently so I'll try and catch it open- if it lasts long enough.
