@Preciousplants1 oh beautiful Sherri!! What kind of storm are you facing? 🌩️πŸŒͺοΈβ›ˆοΈDo you have any tomato cages you could put around them, that sink into the ground? I hope you have a blessed day too and the storm loses all its gusto 🀞β™₯️
@Preciousplants1 I’m still learning my way around cacti, but my guess is that it might be a developing offshoot. If not an offshoot, my next guess would be a bloom forming. Hopefully, one of our resident cacti experts will answer.
@RefinedSandwort thank you Joy, oh it’s a Cati? Hum had no idea the difference, πŸ‘πŸ½my thought was maybe a flower. I saw is for $6 dollars and it was so cute I couldn’t resist. Hopefully they are blooms I just saw another one on the other side. πŸ™πŸ½
I appreciate your help. Blessings to you
It's blooming

Gm everyone I woke up to a blooming lily so beautiful, just wanted to share. But it’s ready to the storm and I’m afraid 😱 for them: what should I do. They sit at the edge of my yard close to the street? Help?
It appears to be a bloom
@Preciousplants1 thanks everyone
@DreamMachine just lightning thunder heavy rain all week πŸ™πŸ½I’m praying for more growth than damage
@Preciousplants1 this is the latest forecast
Hi Sherri! I hope you’re surviving these storms- I’m a few hours south of you and we’re getting them too. That’s a beautiful Hedgehog! That is the start of a flower. I have a lot of cacti (20-25? lol) and I love it when they flower because they’re all different! Send photos when you have flowers! Stay safe πŸŒΈπŸ’•
@Preciousplants1 It's more likely a fruit then a bloom because of the pinkness you can flash your flashlight at it to tell look up on cactus fruit and flowers to tell the difference.
@SillyPlantGirl hi Catherine so nice to meet a fellow Texan lol. Yeah this rain β˜”οΈ and lightning β›ˆοΈ thunderstorms are crazy. Be safe .
Thank you I knew I had to have it when I saw it. I’m pretty new to cati or and cactus. But I’m so excited by this one.
I sure will and pic’s when I get blooms.
Yours is absolutely adorable πŸ₯° are those little yellow flowers? Breathe taking. Thanks for chiming in 🫢🏽
@UpfrontDisphyma thank you πŸ™πŸ½ I didn’t know that! I’m gonna try it lol thank πŸ‘πŸ½
@Preciousplants1 You're welcome.
@UpfrontDisphyma wow you’re right! πŸ‘πŸ½that’s so cool. Thanks for showing me how to do that πŸ‘πŸ½
Btw- Hedgehogs do produce fruit, but it happens around 3 months after it flowers. 😊
@SillyPlantGirl good to know: I can’t wait to get some sun 🌞 to sit it in lol πŸ˜‚
