Work has kept me so busy I haven't had time for blogging or visiting blogs lately. However when I came home from work yesterday and walked through the garden, my heart went pitter pitter pat, at how incredible everything was looking. I had 4 cactus open their blooms for Earth Day! This first one is a Gymnocalycium mesopotamicum. I am really falling in love with all the Gymnocalycium in my collection now that they are blooming.
This one was just labeled Echinopsis Hybrid- the furry buds are so cute and the red blooms amazing!
I don't know what kind of cactus produced this gorgeous pink flower. I do know that it looked dead after the winter here- all purple and wilted- and didn't come back much with the sun. However it did produce a bloom- and what a bloom it is!

This little orange bloom is on a Mantucana weberbaueri cactus. I love the orange blooms!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Earth Day!
