Description
Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
I titled this photo "Unforgettable" because I am usually not in Arizona this time of year to see the cactus bloom, but this year we are. I have been watching this plant for several weeks now, checking almost daily, and this is the last 2 of it's magnificent blooms, they only last for 24 hours so their beauty is short lived. Another reason for the title. I hope you enjoy these beautiful spring/summer flowers as much as I did photographing them...Camp Verde, Arizona
The Argentine Giant is a columnar cactus with each stem fast growing up to 4 inches wide, 3 feet tall, and clumping 6-7 feet wide. It has a fragrant bloom that usually opens at night and last until morning. The fragrance and yellow and white colors attract night pollinators. While it is said to be a nocturnal blooming cactus with the flowers closing at early morning. On cool, cloudy days in Arizona; the flowers continue blooming during the day. 516122
