Title: dark red cactus flower confirmed by Oron as Cylindropuntia imbricata
Post by: Hilary on May 31, 2012, 07:47:21 PM

Another cactus flower to identify.
After much book and Internet searching I decided it must be Cylindropuntia imbricata.
See how the Echinopsis oxygona next to it is sprouting large numbers of flowers.
Any ideas about the dark red flowering cactus?

Glad you agree,
