This little cactus bloomed for the very first time this past July. It is twenty years old. I’m certain of that because my son propagated it from seed that long ago. And, as I’m sure it would be no surprise to you, I’ve been taking care of it ever since.
It was one of those “Mom, I’m bored” afternoons. I suggested a little gardening activity, and off we drove to the garden center to purchase some seeds.
Fast forward to this past July…… ta-dah!

The end.
Wow! 20 years is a long time to wait for a bloom, but it looks like it's making up for lost time.
