Thanks again to everyone who's been helping to identify my plant. I tend to agree with everyone that mine must be Selenicereus grandiflorus, although it doesn't quite look like the artist's image in the 2nd link of scooterbug's June 8th, 12:12am post, above. Perhaps because of the artist's rendition. Attached is another shot of a flower from last week.

Mine has the tubular stems, a small one of which can be seen in the photo. Well, I just went out in the yard and checked, and they DO have just a slight, very slight, angle to them, about 6-sided, if you can call them sides. But they are so CLOSE to being tubular, it's hard to tell....

So, perhaps this is a Hylocereus after all...???
