One of my favorite, although quite uncommon cactus, is the claret cup cactus or Echinocereus triglochidiatus. There are a few varieties of this gorgeous cactus. But I am always surprised when I find one in bloom. When they are not in bloom, they are hardly noticeable. This particular cactus was blooming in the Walnut Canyon National Monument near Flagstaff, Arizona.
