Cactus Flower at Rio Bend RV Resort, El Centro, CA

When I took my walk Monday morning, before we pulled out, I was suprised by the largest cactus flower I have ever seen. It was in the garden in front of the Rio Bend office, not in the wild desert. 





There was one just budding.











And one fully open and perfect.

It was eight inches in diameter. The plant was growing several additional buds on the top.







I am using it as my header for now, but since that goes away when I change headers, I am including the same image in this post. 




It was amazing!

Oh, and for anyone who wants to know more about the brand of the ladder in my last post, check the comments. Craig wrote up the details there.
