Ocotillo Cactus in bloom, Arizona Desert areas, from my archives.
The only time it blooms is when it has rained and enough moisture to produce this lovely flower.
After watching and waiting for this cactus to bloom, it decided to show, some colour, just when we were ready to leave for our trip (with the RV)...I was like 'Oh no you don't'...So I grabbed the pot, and said, 'you'll go on a trip...like it or not'...I took a lot of shots in all stages...it really was important to me, because, I have never seen this kind of cactus in bloom.....Now I have...:))
Thank you all for your visit, lovely comments, and invites.
Have a wonderful weekend.

Cylindropuntia is a genus of cacti (family Cactaceae), containing species commonly known as chollas (/ˈtʃɔɪəz/ CHOY-əz), native to northern Mexico and the Southwestern United States. They are known for their barbed spines that tenaciously attach to skin, fur, and clothing. Stands of cholla are called cholla gardens. Individuals within these colonies often exhibit the same DNA, as they were formerly tubercles of an original plant.
After leaving Tucson I went down to one of my favorite desert places, Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument where I found some of the cactus in bloom. I especially liked the color on this one. I'm guessing this is a cholla of some type. Any ID help would be appreciated.
I finally found the Yucca cactus in bloom! I'd been waiting all Spring to see them. So gorgeous! North Boulder, Colorado

In the Sonoran Desert, not far from Agua Caliente near Tucson, Arizona in the Sonoran Desert. It was a very hot day today.
In my garden. La Ceja, Colombia.
The scientific name for the plant is "Cryptocereus anthonyanus" (syn. "Selenicereus anthonyanus"), and is a member of the night blooming cactus family. Best known for its long, arching stems coated with serrated leaf nodes, fishbone cactus is found in its habitat in groups, which hang from trees. The plant originates in Mexico, where tropical rainforests create a moist, humid environment.
Rarely the plant will bloom with soft pink flowers that open at night and last only one day. Ric-Rac cactus houseplant enjoys similar growing conditions as its cousin, the orchid.
