Devil’s Tongue in Bloom – 2009

One of the most beautiful flowers in our collection of succulents (and all of the flowers are beautiful), is the Devil’s Tongue Barrel Cactus flower. These waxy, delicate, yellow flowers emerge from the most hostile-looking array of spikes and hooks that protect the flesh of this cactus. We don’t know if the flowers have any fragrance because who wants to put their nose close enough to tell?
