The Flying Saucer has landed!

 We were at a local plant nursery and saw this incredible 'Flying Saucer Cactus'.  It was beginning to bloom and looked stunning.  I hinted to Mike, 'You know, someone has a birthday coming up!'.  We've said it plenty of times to each other, but this time it worked!  So I got an early birthday present.

The one open bloom got a bit roughed up on the drive home, but there were a lot of buds still on the cactus.  I wasn't sure were to put it, so I left it by the front door so I could keep an eye on it, and I'm sure glad I did.

After sunset the blooms started opening up and by the next morning it was an impressive show!
