Each year this short squat unprepossessing little cactus erupts into flower. This year there are so many buds they will be competing for space. This is the first to emerge:)
Please excuse dates on my shots. I left my camera sitting next to the laptop which got very hot and I think it may have been responsible for the rhs scroll button malfunctioning. This is proving impossible to set time and date after a reset, I can only manage the year so far. May have to visit the camera shop for advice but that's a 30 mile round trip away ...
@ziggy77 Thank you so much! I've been waiting and waiting for those buds to burst open:) @tibles That's so kind, thank you! Am hoping the rest erupt into flower very soon:)
For such ugly plants cacti have such beautiful flowers. You can probably tell I am not a fan of them, but I like the way you have caught the flowers here
@tibles That's so kind, thank you! Am hoping the rest erupt into flower very soon:)
looks like this plant will soon be overwhelmed by it's own flowers..
