No commas are needed in the sentence. The sentence:
"Prickly cactus produces beautiful delicate flowers in the harsh deserts of Arizona."
is already correct as it stands. The adjectives "beautiful" and "delicate" are coordinate adjectives describing the flowers, but since they can be joined with "and" without sounding awkward, they could technically take a comma ("beautiful, delicate flowers"). However, this use of a comma is a matter of style and is often omitted when the adjectives are shorter and their combination sounds natural. The phrase "in the harsh deserts of Arizona" does not require any additional punctuation.
