It's not often you see cactus growing in somebody's front yard in Western New York, but Ellicott Street resident Frank Belluuci has two potted beaver-tail cactus plants that are in bloom with gorgeous yellow flowers.
The variety, he said, is known as "Yellow Rose of Texas."
While Frank's cactus are potted and can be stored indoors during the winter -- I have seen, and he's seen, the same variety of cactus growing outside in WNY.
The flowers should produce an edible fruit, but the growing season here isn't long enough.
