The above flower is one of the many spectacular hybrids of the night-blooming Echinopsis cactus, probably
the 'Los Angeles' variety. A free-blooming species, it flowers at intervals during the entire summer here in New
Mexico, sending out a number of buds that sometimes extend to nearly six inches. Frequently, several flowers open
at the same time, affording a striking display. |
