Bulbine latifolia

aka Rooiwortel (Afrikaans for 'red root'—
this plant is native to South Africa).  
With snow still on the ground on the first
day of spring,  I got my flower fix in the
Desert Pavilion at my favorite botanic garden.

Cactus Flower

I found this minuscule cactus blossom in the
Desert Pavilion, one of several year-round
habitats at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
