this is 2009 Archives of this Lady ..
for the past 2 years, winter has been too cold for the Cactus to recover in time to bloom ..
so, if and that is a Big IF it were blooming ..
this is what I would have posted ..
so, hope you enjoy this Night Blooming Cereus even though it isn't happening ..
at least not in my yard !

cereus flower, produced by this cactus, will last one night..
maybe part of the next day..
all depends on the weather..
Cereus are saucer-size, very fragrant & show-offs that burst from submarine-looking buds ..

.. droplets of rain
.. on a flower that only bloomed at 10pm
.. attached to a spiky cactus [ yes, it hurt ]
.. always warned my neighbor that I'd be out there
.. the first year, I didn't tell her
.. she and her husband wondered 'who was outside their bedroom window at 10pm at night'
.. on a night like this, with no moon
.. carrying a flashlight and a camera became a balancing act
.. but worth it all
