Cactus Flowers

I took this picture 20 minutes ago in my garden.
I collect cacti from all over the world, I have more than 40 different species, but I wanted to share this one, because its very typical from North Argentina (here, we love the ones that come form the USA or Mexico, more exotic for us).
This is a little part of MY WORLD, also because my garden is very important for me.

I also wanted to share this picture in Today's Flowers, Green Thumb Sunday (and Macro Monday. I hope you enjoy this blossom as much as I do.

Good to see a cacti collectors world. I love flowering cacti because they are so different in design and colour.
