Any day now....

This little bud was shot a while back. Many days and many nights I was waiting for it to grow and open. The time has almost come. Any day it will open. And it looks like it s gonna be a white one. Was kind of hoping for dark pink or red.. but I'll take the white :))
And of course I will take million of photos as soon as it opens.

Those spines might look nasty here, but are actually very small and you can touch them and it will not make your fingers bleed or itch (like some others do). Adorable, fatty little thing :)
