Plants And Flowers At The Zoo

Not only does the Phoenix Zoo have some pretty amazing animals, it also has some very beautiful and exotic looking plants and flowers in it's gardens and along the paths!
Some very interesting trees. Anyone know what kind they are?
This plant caught my eye. It looks like a lily flower but it's not. It appears to be a cactus with a very delicate flower! This one's by the orynxs:
Is this a cactus? Such vibrant colors!
By the entrance to the orangutan enclosures was this pretty tree:
Beautiful colors between the orangutan enclosures!
another angle:
And when you leave the orangutan enclosures, you see this bush with very exotic blooms!
I found I was looking at the plants the same as I was looking at the animals!
It seemed everything was blooming even all the cactuses!
 
The zoo is a wonderful place!
