Description
Purple is my passion color and my favorite, hence why the Arizona Purple Prickly Pear Cactus is my favorite cactus. Also known as the Santa Rita Prickly Pear Cactus, after the Santa Rita Mountain range.
They only bloom in the springtime. This capture was right in my own desert garden of joy. All of the varieties of cactus had already bloomed, except my two purple prickly pear cacti. After patiently waiting, buds began to form, but now I had to wait for them to blossom. They worth waiting for. Now I could finally say, "At Last, Sitting Pretty!"
They resemble a rose, my favorite flowers.
