Description
I just love this pretty and delicate cactus flower and look forward to its beautiful blooms each year. I have several in my garden in Sydney, Australia. This I captured against a lovely rich blue afternoon sky. They flower in Sydney around Easter or a bit later, hence the common name Easter Cactus.
