Ocotillo


The ocotillo should be in bloom but the part of the desert in California we are planning on going to may not have ocotillo.  I don't remember from previous visits to this area.

As you can see the flowers are way up there on the end of their stalks.

It is almost impossible to use a macro lens for a close-up picture of the flower.

A real beauty with that flame at the end of the branch. At the last picture you can see that it is a succulent or not John?
