Desert plants can be very pretty, too! Barrel Cacti can grow flowers that are usually yellow, greenish-yellow, purplish-red, or orange color. There is also an amazing “plant” called a Desert Rose that is actually made out of sand crystals. They appear in little groups and look like rose petals. Also, when it rains, deserts bursts into bloom, and flowers of almost every color spring up everywhere! It’s a wonderful sight!
