The Parodia opened up 4 orange flowers as well!
And the orange Dahlia just keeps putting out bloom after bloom. Here is one that is just about all the way open. I just love how they open their petals one by one.
I met a local gardener and traded a piece of my night blooming cactus, for some cuttings this last weekend. Among the wonderful things I got, were some aquatic Canna cuttings. I've got them on my front porch. My son was intrigued by them and rigged me up this little set-up to get started, with a small fountain pump, one of my silver mixing bowls, and a few other things.
And here is sweet Miss P- she was checking out the Canna flower from inside the house.

I'm working on an "orange" post too! I love your peanut cactus and orange Dahlia and your fountain set up sure looks interesting.
Dee, I'm lovin' all the orange. The blooms must look spectacular against your desert backdrop. I added you to Mr Linky. Jean
Hi Dee,
I have a doggie that looks like yours and a peanut cactus blooming like crazy too. I love my terrier mix Sophie and my orange peanut cactus!
We're retired truck drivers. One of the things we missed in 15 years of crossing and recrossing this beautiful country of ours is...the deserty in bloom. How I wish we'd seen it. The blooms are beautiful, thanks
