Last summer my Echinocereus triglochidiatus var. mojavensis (SB 1756; Montrose County, Colorado, USA) flowered for the first time.

The plant is growing outdoors all year round, with some protection from precipitation during winter.

The flower is absolutely stunning and I almost can't wait for the plant to form a large mound covered in flowers.
