Purple Prickly Pear, or Santa Rita. I'm sure there are a good number of varieties of this. I know I have seen several. The flowers were wide open and begging for someone to take pictures of them.

About Me
- Arizona Gronseths
- Mesa, Arizona, United States
- We are not the first 'Gronseths' to make it to Arizona, but we are the first from our immediate family. Dan - I do most of the blogging, photos, artwork you'll see. Came from Wisconsin to Arizona in 1986 after a bicycle trip to the lower 48 states. I've been a park ranger since the end of 1988. Karen (Bleeker) - Karen came from South Dakota to Arizona in 1989. She has been a teacher and a teacher trainer. We met here in Arizona and were married in 1990. Erik - Erik came along in 1996. He is pretty smart and likes math, reading, playing the Wii and watching Saturday morning cartoons. Jakob - Jakob was born in 1999, the last of the 'old millenium' Gronseths - at least amongst our immediate family. Jakob loves people and can seldom stand to be alone for any length of time.
