Prickly Pear
This “Prickly Pear” cactus was blooming outside my rental house at the beach last summer. I noticed that each day there was a flower at a different place on the plant. Soon, I realized that each bloom died at the end of the day. And then a fresh bloom grew in a new place the next morning. Of course I photographed it so I could be sure and paint it once I was home. I just love all the various shades of yellow within one bloom.
