Spring comes early to the Desert. These Hedgehog Cactus, 
Echinocereus engelmannii, are a regular indication that Summer is practically here and temperatures will start soaring. Although they are quite common in the Arizona-Sonora Desert, they are usually quite inconspicuous. It is only when the burst into bright purple blossoms that you can see them clearly on the rocky hillsides.
