Kitchen cactus

My Kitchen

Last summer Harry very kindly brought me back a cactus from Arizona.
A few days ago, I noticed this small but very interesting looking
new growth appearing at the top of it. I wonder whether it is a flower
or a new branch?

Hi Tricia,
I think it's turning into a pineapple.LOL (that's what I thought it was at first) It looks like a flower to me. It's really beautiful. \/

I'd guess it's an off shoot. Pop it in a pot with some propogation powder on its bottom and see what happens!
