This is also called Bishop's Hat and Bishop's Miter Cactus, or in fancy terms, astrophyum myriostigma. I think Bishop's Cap is easier to remember, don't you??

A favorite photo from Bellingrath Gardens, near Mobile Alabama
Reflection's Flora and Fauna
A collection of my photos of flora and fauna, and maybe now and then,
something else that catches my attention and just will not let go.
Maybe even with little verbage, which is pretty hard for this gal.

Welcome to Reflection's Flora and Fauna.
I have found I am having so much fun with the camera that there are many more photos taken than will fit on my blog, Reflections From the Fence.
I post flora and fauna photos here. One subject a day, a flora and fauna 365 project. I managed to get past the first 365 and started the second year of this daily exercise. I made it till sometime in November of 2011. And, now, Flora and Fauna is just a regular ole blog, posting when I have something to share and the time to post it.
Some posts are wordy, some are wordless. My goal is to make them as wordless as possible. However, if I find something interesting during the posting/research process, I may share, ok, I will probably share. I hope you find the words and photos to be interesting.
Remember, by clicking on the photo, it will open in a new window, usually a larger view of the image, more detail, etc. Please use your back button to return here to Reflection's Flora and Fauna.
Thanks for stopping by.

Extraordinary! I've never before seen a cactus. It looks like a very hardy cactus (and like a bishop's cap). Thanks for sharing it.
Cheers,
Jennifer
Wow, very different and I have never seen one of these . . . neat, Carol. I agree with you, Bishop's cap is much easier to remember and say!
