This is the before picture where they were all in bloom. These happen to be yellow. Some are white and I have seen pink.
Some people take the red things off the cactus. You have to be very careful because they have tiny tiny spines that stick you. Inside the red things is the fruit and they do make preserves from these. It would sure take a lot of these to make a jar of preserves. But, these are free and alongside the road or out in the desert.

Those yellow blooms are so pretty! I had no idea that cactus were so beautiful in bloom! (Actually, northerner that I am, I had no idea that cactus bloomed.) Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteI thank you so much for linking in this week. It is an honor to host Friday's Flaunt and meet new friends and visit the regulars (who are like old friends) who share. I am always excited to tour each post and see the different flowers/ projects and garden art that everyone flaunts. It is a pleasure to tour and see all the gorgeous blooms...and I appreciate each and every link and comment! I hope you will link in again soon!
