~A Budding Saguaro At Sunset~

~Carnegiea gigantea~


Saguaro is pronounced 'sah-wah-roh'.
Here is a really interesting page
if you want to know more about
this desert giant, just click here.

They will be blooming in a week or so,
which means I'll be getting
out the old step ladder.
When they mature enough to bloom
there minimum height is about ten feet.

I really want to get some photographs
of these beautiful flower heads.
They ring the entire top of the cactus,
and looks a lot like a royal crown.


Thanks for looking.
Enjoy your Sunday, ok?
