Then...the long awaited trip to the "dessert"... a.k.a. Arizona. The one thing Isaac really wanted to see & bring home was cactus. Although what we got were purchased at a store he was delighted with his cactus from Arizona!
Fast forward to a year & half later, the cactus all survived. Not really noticing a huge change in them as slow growing, needing only infrequent watering.
theSURPRISE when Isaac was helping me water the plants...one of the cactus BLOOMED! I had been watching for a sign of a bloom most of the summer, no sign of a bud, so imagine the delight when Isaac watered the cactus, there it was, a YELLOW flower! The neat thing is Isaac seen it, first!
Cactus...just like kids, one day you walk by 'em only to realize they are growing up and blooming into something so pretty.
