Reminder that incredible things are often cultivated from the smallest of beginnings. Lobivia ancistrophora is commonly called domino #cactus or Easter lily cactus. It has a globular shape, few spines, with large, white flowers attached to long, green tubes. #succulents #flowers #blooming #cacti

So much joy that my young milkweed plant is thriving and bloomed! Asclepias angustifolia, Arizona milkweed, is an endemic species of #milkweed native only to #Arizona. #pollinatorfood #pollinatorgarden #desertlife #plantsky

Just in time for sping, my Purple Moon cactus bloomed! Gymnocalcium Friedrichii is a round globular dark purple #cactus with pink #flowers! #Succulents #DesertLife #Blooming 🌵🌸

Quick trip to another #desert a couple of weeks ago. The #JoshuaTree symbolizes resilience, survival, and beauty in the face of adversity. And its not actually a tree. #JoshuaTreeNationalPark #naturephotography #blueskies #SaveOurNationalParks #California #succulents

I bought this print from #IndigenousArtist Steven Paul Judd during the first Trump occupation. Its sentiment still holds true, and I will always love this land, no matter what they call it.

Where is your favorite spot to visit? This is mine.

First visit of the year to the #redmountain on the #saltriver. It was an overcast day in the desert, but no rain :( This is probably my favorite place to visit, even if only for a moment. #mountains #rivers #naturephotos #nature #naturephotography
