Laugh A Day

An amazing place to visit and see desert flora not only from here in Arizona, but from many other desert locations around the world.

This is the entrance to the gardens.

These cacti are from higher, colder habitats as well as from more tropical regions. Most cacti are native only to the Americas.

These are a variety of barrel cactus, Wooly-Headed (Echinocactus) quite unusual

These are tiny little catus which pop-up only during agreeable weather

There were many little "residents" in the garden we encountered during the tour.

What a little cutie!

This is the Boojum tree (Fouquieria calumnaris) of all things called a "The upside down tree" and grows to 70 feet tall.

This Century cactus (Agave) was planted in the gardens on Sep 24, 1898

A spring day in the desert...just beautiful!
