WOW That's a " Night Blooming Cerus Plant ! " " Queen of the night " Some readings say a plant needs to be five years old until it blooms then it blooms once a year. Mine has bloomed at least 12 times this year sense spring. Last week five big flowers opened again :)) The vanillia aroma was so strong. Mine grows outside year round. It is about 125 years old was from my Great Grandmothers plant. Two years ago my Aunt in her 80's gave me a small plant. Mine is pretty big and I have given dozens of plants/and dozens more cutting away. I just treasure mine !
Picture of the bud forming it take a long time . Then the flowers are so big takes two hand to holdm the beauties. Then to last only one night.
