Friday Flowerblogging

This is the Vorlon Wife’s Prickly Pear Cactus. They grow wild in New Jersey. The Vorlon Wife has seen fit to transplant some to her flower garden. Although the flowers are very pretty, they only last a day and then are done. You gotta be quick with the camera to capture them. You also must NOT touch the flat cactus pads. They have very fine needles and you’ll get a handful of them and they are very difficult to remove, as they are almost invisible.

This post does not have a thumbnail because my host, cphosting, upgraded their server and then need to install a module for my thumbnail to work. I rather suspected I would have a problem in one area or another.
