I always was fascinated by cactus plants. Have had several over the years but now I only have three. All three of them have had flowers this spring. Certain cactus flowers are shortlived beauty. Especially the latest of mine that got them. These ones lasts about a week.
The flower fell off before it opened. It simply became too heavy. I put it into a vase and it opened there a few hours later. It is now on day two, fully opened. It might last until tomorrow. There are presently two more flower buds on it, but it is never sure that they will fully open up. The hairy buds often just dry away. This bud did open, after not having had flowers for several years, and never before since I moved to my present place. Once in my previous place. Enjoy the shortlived beauty of them. I have no idea what kind of cactus this is.
