A Christmas Cactus blossom in both color and in black and white.
Nancy’s Christmas Cactus is caught during a rare blooming event with this pink – magenta – fuchsia flower being illuminated by morning light a few days before Christmas.
Although known as a cactus, this plant is really a succulent, the Schlumbergera truncata. Commonly known as a Christmas Cactus, Thanksgiving Cactus and/or Holiday Cactus, this beautiful plant is named for the seasons in which it typically blooms.
A black and white presentation of a colorful blossom actually brings out some detail in the petals that the pink/fuschia/magneta color seems to hide.
