We had a wonderful walk this morning. A rare sight is the night blooming Cereus cactus - aka the barbed-wire cactus because farmers used to use them instead of fences. It blooms around 2-3 am - and is gone by 10-11 am.
Then we rounded the corner to inspect my friend's cactus to see if the blooms were closer to opening and spotted the pink blooms a miniature barrel cactus - they opened in the hour we were out walking!
