πΈ Our Queen of the Night is getting ready to put on a show!
π« This beauty only blooms at night - huge, fragrant, one-night-only flowers that open after dark and close again by morning. She's a drama queen and we love her for it! (First pic is our plant in clinic, other 2 pics are stock photos from online showing the open flower)
Fun Facts about this stunner;
π Her botanical name is Epiphyllum oxypetalum
π She's a cactus (yes really!)
π The flowers can grow up to 20-30cm wide
π Each bloom only lasts one night
π The scent is strongest after sunset
πͺ· We've had this plant for some time now and have been blessed with flowers each season. She's our little reminder that beautiful things sometimes take their time and to appreciate them when they bloom.
π We'll do our absolute best to snap some photos while she's blooming so keep an eye out!
β¨οΈ We might even have some cuttings for anyone who'd like to have a little piece of royalty at home!
