I Heart Macro Christmas Cactus part 2



Last week I shared Macro photos of my Pink Christmas Cactus,
this white one barely had any buds, now it's already got more fully open flowers than the pink one.
The first shot (above) I had to come at it from underneath to see all the beauty that's almost totally hidden from view when standing.
GORGEOUS!!


Lots of gorgeousness from this angle too!


And this...


Below is the Pink plant with a few fully open blooms,
next week it's gonna be a stunner!

  8. In the first photo, it almost looks like an orchid bloom. I think I like these even more than the pink, and I wouldn't have thought anything could pass those up! Your home must be so lovely filled with these plants and your photography!
