Cactus in Bloom

I went into the garden and found this happening to our cactus , we planted it last year so it is its first flowers . cacus are amazing when they flower it is always dramatic . This one if you cut a shape out of its leaves itreproduces more with the same shape cut out !!! its called bunny ears !! a bit like cloning to the uneducated !!! Yes we did think of making it a Lifeshapes cactus with triangles and circles cut out but it is VERY prickly !!!!!
