Mosaic Monday is hosted by Ms. Mary and is up by Sunday evening. Please join us and see beautiful mosaics from all over here at the Little Red House.
These succulent plants are water-retaining. They adapt to arid climate or soil conditions. They also store water in their leaves, stems and/or roots.
These are flowers from different cacti, and I can only name a few: the prickly pear cactus; barrel cactus. Its summer and its hot, so they thrive.

I recently went to a local greenhouse that had many varieties of cacti. They’re amazing and you’ve captured them and their blossoms beautifully!

Oh your photos are GORGEOUS! Maybe I could grow cactus since they require little to no watering. Beautiful colors in all of them.
