Lovely and delicate (& are those prickly pears in the background?)

Thank you, Victoria…and yes, those are prickly pear cactus in the background.

Little beauties! The earthy green of the cactus offsets their sandy pastel color very nicely.

Very nice Scott. Do you know what this plant is? It looks like sticks of popcorn to me. The cactus in the background sets things off very nicely indeed! 🙂

Thank you, Chillbrook…and I really have no idea what to call those little popcorn-like flowers. I thought that cactus in the background really helped with the definition of the flowers.

I thought this might be one of the everlastings, but I’m not sure.

It does look similar to the pearly everlasting…but a bit different, too…so maybe related…. Thank you for the suggestion, Allen.

Sweet, and yes… delicate. Sometimes one needs to look closely for these treasures.

That’s part of the joy in finding them…the pause that it takes to do so…. Thank you, Miss Gunta. 🙂

I always love it when you find the wildflowers.

I love it when they find me, too, George…thank you. 🙂
