It is queen of the night and it is rare. We have had the cactus plant for ages and is the first time it's flowered

Great timing on the photo

I went out this morning to take a photo but it was completely closed. I noticed that there are maybe 10 small flowers. So I will go out early evening to see if all the flowers are open
Hubby has the cactus growing on a trellis.

We have an app on his phone which identifies each plant and taking a photo of the leaf and closed flower it confirmed it is Queen of the Night

That's amazing! Thank you for sharing the photo of the rare bloom!

We are still getting them and have 3 ATM. I agree it is very unusual for us as well . I think we have had maybe 15. It's sad because they only last a few days
