In the Pink

If you look at Jane's blog you will see photos of her beautiful white Epiphyllum cactus.
That reminded me that ours flowered for the first time this week so I thought I'd share it with you too.
It's amazing that such a lovely flower can emerge from some pretty ordinary-looking thick strappy leaves.

    It's such a beautiful color, Alice! Only when I looked at Jane's white flower did I realize it's what we call a Night-Blooming Cereus. I've only ever seen them in white before and I've never grown one.
    It's quite a treasure, isn't it? Gorgeous!
    Thanks for sharing those lovely photos.
    Getting hot over there now, is it?
