What a beautiful landscape and a real gift those mavarillosas photos, I live in an arid land of medanos and vegetation that is able to withstand high temperatures and mostly cacti that have taught me that the most beautiful and strongest flowers occur in the harshest climates.
Then you also understand. Some of the most magnificent flowers only bloom in the harshest conditions. We also have cacti like that. They only bloom once a year for one day. They are as big as a plate with the most unbelievable scent. And the mountains look like they're covered in snow - in summer
