Devils Tongue Barrel cactus bloom,captured at the Desert Botanical Garden.Ferocactus Latispinus (Devils Tongue)
Devils tongue barrel cactus,is known for its amazing 3 inch diameter blooms,that dazzle the eyes,with its intense fiery hues of fuschia.One of the rarest to capture ,the blooms are almost an unusual shade of purple and fuschia ,mixed in to create one spectacular color.The blooms are rare,in the sense that they last longer than most species of cacti,whose blooms come with a short shelf life ,of just one day.I bought this beauty at the amazing,and my second home ,The Desert Botanical Gardens!
