Enough with the snow for awhile. Back to sunny Florida. I thought these cactus fruits or flowers were very interesting. They look like slightly blown balloons. They burst after ripening and drop fibrous guck and seeds.

Do you know how long these things last for, Mary? Sometimes they come and go very quickly.
Mary MacADNski: They seemed to last quite a while.

It looks like you missed the flowering. The second one from the top looks like it has a dead flower hanging from it.
Mary MacADNski: I would say you're right, Cath. I kept looking at it from across the street and yard so got brave one day and crossed the street. I saw then that it was the fruit. If you're at home call me.

Cactus often have colourful fruits, and this one is certainly no exception.
