Flowers often make for good photos. Wildflowers, unlike garden flowers can be exciting because they only grow at certain times of the year and you have to go look for them. So, in that way they are "special." Cactus flowers are even more exciting because their window is even fewer days of the year -- and they only grow in certain parts of the world. Hedgehog Cactus flowers are the perfect example. Hedgehog Cactus are found in the southwest, only in the desert, are relatively small (a foot tall at most), and not abundant even in locations where they exist. Their flowers last two days or so. Here is one of my favorites:
