A Very Rare Bloom


15 years ago, I spent time at my parent's home in Coral Springs, Florida and took home a piece of cactus from their huge plant growing in the backyard.


It was shortly after when my parent's died and we sold the home.


The cactus has thrived in a completely different environment, but just barely! Over the years, a once very big piece, has slowly deteriorated into a sad shell of itself, no doubt it longed for it's former tropical climate. But it adapted and survived.


This cactus has always been my favorite for it's history.


And now, after 15 years, it has rewarded me!
