Got me. But if that's not trick photography, those flowers are pretty amazing!

The flowers are an entirely different shape. There might be two plants underneath, or perhaps some weird combination.

or it's a graft and both rootstock and graft are flowering (as unlikely as the next option ;) )

Could a chimera do something like this? :-k I'm not saying it is, but just a thought.

it's two plants :) a bigger one in front with the larger flowers, and a smaller one inback with smaller flowers. The large one is a darker colored body.
Here's to you, all you insidious creatures of green..er I mean cacti.

I agree, two plants with the larger one hiding the smaller one.
