Cactus in a Floral Arrangement


The beautiful willow-like twigs add height to the display
 I went to a dinner at the Flood Mansion in SF this week, and I fell in love with the floral arrangements, which had cacti in them!  At the end of the event, we got to take floral arrangements home.  here's the one that I took; it was very tall and hard to carry on public transportation but I did it!  I pulled out the succulents and planted them in my cactus garden, and then I brought the display downstairs for everyone to enjoy.  It has the perfect height and presence for the reception area of the building.  The flowers included roses, hydrangea, grass-like clumps, and cacti.
