@websemps No, it's not mine, but one in our daughter's yard in Arizona.

@rocklady When I saw picture, I thought Southwest immediately but then looked at your zone info and saw FL so then I thought, "Guess not...!" But it's Arizona!
Yes, I agree with Dirtdorphins: Great banner to kick off this special week!

@websemps I haven't seen any cacti in Florida, however, they can be grown in Arkansas. Here is the original photo, which reminds me I should tell my daughter to look at her cactus.

@websemps You're welcome. She has some very nice ones. She sent me a photo of one that had three huge blooms on it and she said the fragrance filled the whole yard.

I have never seen a cactus show those colors before - and I LOVE it!
I love it a lot.
Is it a prickly pear (nopales)?
