Ok, I know I have posted about a million pictures of my Epiphyllum oxypetalum aka Night Blooming Cereus aka Queen of the Night but I had some buds set just before I brought it in the house for winter and they have been opening for the last few weeks so one night I decided to give one of the blossoms the light table treatment and came up with these pretty great pictures if i do say. The smell is so incredible I can't understand why Estee Lauder or Channel or Mennon or Old Spice hasn't bottled it. I would be stinkin' up the streets like an old whore if I could get my hands on some of it in a bottle. The closest thing it smells like to me sort of is ylang ylang sort of. Frikkin' the size of an extra large grapefruit the flower is. It is mesmerizing to look at and so romantic... only open for a night and then it dies......
