I traded for this plant and the flower came very close to 6 inches across. I'm calling it a Flying Saucer, :-k , only because it had to come from outer space. :lol: Surely it can't be a cactus?

The 100's starting last Friday, today expected 108, Wednesday and Thursday 110, and continue for the next 10 days. :oops: Just a normal summer here in the Central Valley of California. #-o This morning something nice to enjoy before the heat melts the flower.
