Flowers in the tank!
Iβm always surprised when I spot the blooms in this Neoregelia bromeliad.
A large barrel cactus with 5 open flowers. They're peachy yellow with red striping.
Ferocactus wislizeni - very bitey and beautiful!

Its green snake-like arms radiate from the center and are dotted with small clusters of bright yellow flowers, some buds still pinkish. The plant looks a little thin, suggesting it may want more water or a new spot in the garden.

Their propaganda is completely detached from reality, and I think it will ultimately harm the Republican Party as people see through the lies. The GOP treats its own supporters like theyβre fools.
