Description
This is a "Tulip Prickly Pear Cactus." Part of my "Spring Has Sprung" series. In our Arizona Sonoran Desert, this Tulip Prickly Pear Cactus only blooms in the springtime. There are more than a dozen varieties of prickly pear cactus. I have at least 4 varieties.
This capture was right in my own desert garden of joy. It has such a delightful, overlapping of yellow petals when fully opened, with reddish-pink interior. They take on so many looks depending on the lighting, time of day, in the shade, out in the open to name a few.
During the approaching "golden hour," they take on such a warm glow, creating such a lovely, close-up look at the petals amidst it's spiney surrounding. As if to say, "My Time To Glow!" Beautiful ladies is it your time to glow?
💕It’s with heARTfelt Appreciation and Thanks to the Administrators for these HOMEPAGE FEATURES in their Art Group💕

This is gorgeous, Janet! You can capture yellow color so well. Beautiful flower! LF
Janet Marie replied:
Johanna! You are so sweet to visit my gallery and leave your lovely thoughts about my artwork. I am glad that you like it and feel it's gorgeous. Oh the color yellow, what a delight to bring all that sunshine to those who view my artwork. Yellow evokes feelings of joy and happiness. Certainly feelings I felt this past springtime, when the Sonoran Desert is a sea of yellow in so much that blooms. The Prickly Pear Cactus does produce beautiful flowers (reminding me of my favorite flowers, roses). I also appreciate you choosing this as one of your favorites. Janet đź’•
