Cactus Flowers [EN-IT]

Hello/Ciao Steemians!


Cactus flowers can be considered an event, as they bloom maximum twice a year. At first it may seem strange to you that they flourished, but they have also to push forward the proliferation of their own species.

You can find all types: yellow, pink, orange, fuchsia, red, and white, like the one I was lucky enough to meet in a dehors bar few days ago. They can bloom during the day but at night also, during which is not the color of the flower that attracts insects but its perfume, may last a few days or even a few hours popping up in any season.

Sometimes few or even ten years pass for the first flowering. A striking example of flowering speed is that of the Echinopsis, of which the flowers open during the late evening and reach the culmination of their opening during the first morning hours, beginning to wither around midday of the following day, concentrating in this way the cycle of own flowering in just over 12 hours.

On some plants it blooms only one at a time, others are literally covered with flowers, the one I photographed had a big number of bloomed flowers for his moderate size.

I fiori dei cactus possono essere considerati un evento, in quanto fioriscono massimo due volte l'anno. In un primo momento potrebbe sembrarvi strano il fatto che fioriscano, ma d'altronde anche loro devo mandare avanti la prolificazione della propria specie.

Se ne possono vedere di tutti i colori, gialli, rosa, arancio, fucsia, rossi, e bianchi, come quello che ho avuto la fortuna di incontrare nel dehors di un bar qualche giorno fa, possono fiorire di giorno ma anche di notte, durante la quale non é il colore del fiore ad attrarre gli insetti ma il suo profumo, possono durare alcuni giorni o addirittura poche ore spuntando in qualunque stagione.

Passano a volte pochi o addirittura decine di anni per la prima fioritura. Un esempio lampante di velocità di fioritura é quella dell'Echinopsis, del quale i fiori si schiudono durante le tarde ore della sera e raggiungono il culmine della loro apertura durante le prime ore del mattino, cominciando ad appassire verso mezzogiorno del giorno successivo, concentrando così il ciclo della propria fioritura in poco più di 12 ore.

Su alcune piante ne fiorisce solamente uno alla volta, altre vengono letteralmente ricoperte da fiori, quello che ho fotografato per essere di dimensioni modeste se la cava egregiamente in quanto a quantità di fiori sbocciati.
