Echinocereus Fendleri or Pinkflower hedgehog cactus

http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=ECFE

This is a native to Texas and I almost missed seeing it up close and personal.  I looked out the window this afternoon and there was a splash of color at the end of the "garden" spot.  Can you believe it?  The dear deer did not take the blooms off...maybe I am learning a valuable lesson.  I know there are some blooms they will take...like the yucca for instance,  but I may start thinking cactus instead of lilies.
