Photo Fun: Ouch!

by Brian
This photo was taken during our vacation to Hawaii while we visited the Honolulu Zoo (back when we lived in SF). There was a garden maintained by volunteers with lots of nice plants and flowers. I was especially intrigued with the large cacti. I have no idea what this cactus is called but the flowers and colors were nice and I liked the contrasting textures. It’s pretty neat that something so “dangerous” with sharp thorns everywhere can have such beautiful blossoms. Neat juxtaposition.

We pass by that garden every time and have yet to see any volunteers growing.
They do have a nice assortment of cacti though.
