I was having too much fun on Monday, for a cactus post....It was Mr Messyfish's first day of holidays for a month....I am making lots of sewing things, and the cake sales are really low! Yeah! what a great day it was.
Here is "Jeff Prickle" in flower. He flowered for only one day. Little messyfish squealed in delight when he saw it. I screamed NO! NO! as he went to grab it, because I HAD to photograph it for you cactus monday girls. I feel bad, because he jumped out of his skin with shock! Anyway, he played with it after I took these lovely pics. Now it is no longer :-(

This cactus bloom sure uplift my day messyfish, I need to visit the dentist later to remove my other wisdom tooth.
Happy Cactus Monday Messyfish and Happy Cactus Tuesday, I was about to upload it today but I thought may be I just sleep a little bit late.
This bloom is incredibly beautiful messyfish. I hope to see you paint it when you are more free....

This is a gorgeous cactus bloom. HCM. I hope your cake sales get a boost with Christmas coming on.
When we have these in Arizona, they alway stop me in my tracks with their beauty!!! These are great shots.

Beautiful photos... I love the "girly girl" dainty pink of this bloom! :) HCM! :)
Hi
WOW - I love Jeff Prickle. It's such a pretty flower, but only one day?? I enlarged the photo and can see the inside bit is really interesting, while the petals look so soft and delicate. What a great colour too. LOVE IT!
BTW, I googled but can't seem to find it. I wonder if I can find it locally, maybe in Bunnings...
LOL, Happy cactus, protea and bottlebrush monday AND TUESDAY! (I made a mistake with my link at Teri's but never mind!)
Have a good week, Evelyn
I'm amazed that those prickly plants put off such beautiful flowers. Would it have lasted a long time had little messyfish not messed with it? Or is it just one of those short-lived flowers?
What a beautiful cactus bloom and it is still MOnday where I am so you are right on time for me here in California, USA!
Bloomin marvellous!! I think I have a photo of me (as a child) with one of these - I'm going to look for it now!

Tee hee for buying the book. Hope you find lots of yummy things to make and grow from it.
