For Twenty Years She Has Bloomed On Christmas Day — Image by kenne
Every year, she opens
without asking why—
white mouths of praise
lifting from the green.
How many ways
can faith be quiet?

Like clockwork, our Christmas cactus has begun to bloom, which means it’s now out of the utility room
and will spend the Holidays in the dining room.

Like clockwork,
for the last 16 years,
our Christmas Cactus
has begun blooming.
Bursting forth colors
pink and white
bringing beauty to
our Christmas season.

A Late Bloomer — Image by kenne
The normal blooming season for the giant saguaro cactus is in late May and June. Yesterday (December 30th) while hiking in Sabino Canyon I spotted this unusual event. I guess you can call it the new “Christmas cactus!”
The saguaro blooms open at night and last through the next midday. Each flower blooms only once.
