Prickly Pear Cactus

My first ever Bloom like this on a Prickly Pear.
A local friend, Judy Stater gave me some cuttings of her Prickly Pears
last month and tonight I found this bloom in the garden.
I had to touch it to be convinced it was real!
Amazing to see!!!

It is so common here that it does my heart good to see how excited you are about the bloom. It is beautiful and I am so glad you have nurtured it and been rewarded.
