By the books, it's about a month early and two thousand feet below where it ought to be, but here it is; a claret cup cactus in bloom on the UA campus. It's a pity about the grass; I actually hand-weeded a bit around the thing, and picked out the stone chippings people had dropped in among the spines, one day last week, and got stabbed for my pains.
