Cactus
By Valerie Cathey
Many beautiful cactus come from South America. Echinopsis calochlora is native to Brazil. It's globular body is light, bright green, with golden spines, and fragrant pure white, 4 inch diameter flowers. This wild echinopsis rivals any hybrid, repeat blooming from late spring to early fall. The flowers open in the late afternoon, or early evening, and last until the heat of the next day. These cactus grow easily on a sunny window sill, and can also spend summers in a protected spot outdoors.
