Southern California In Bloom

Posted by Chad Anglin on

Oh boy, is it May already?! Well, you know what that means? April Showers = May Flowers. And right now Southern California succulents and cacti are in full-bloom (as are so many other things, including roses, but we'll have to post about that another time)!  The blooms range so much in color, size and texture that each one is a work of art in itself. Pigment's store manager, Carissa, took a moment to capture them at their finest.

All these lovely blooms reside at the Desert Garden in Balboa Park in San Diego, a 2.5 acre garden that contains more than 1,300 plants. If you're ever in town, or live nearby, take an afternoon this weekend to stop by to see these beauties in person. The blooms don't last long so hurry up and catch a glimpse before they turn in normal ol' cacti and you have to wait a whole other year to see them in all their glory. Happy weekend! - XO Pigment
