Dragon fruit bud getting ready to open
Photo was taken a few minutes ago.
Good going.
Sandy, thanks!
Wow, so pretty. How big is it now and is there a fragrence?.
That's so pretty!! Is the bloom big??
Thanks!
Torri. sadly I didn't get to smell the flower when I took the picture, it was really dark. At 8 AM, it was wilted already. ; (
Mimi, the flower looked huge through my camera. I couldn't walk close to flowers because it was dark and too many things I could have tripped on.
Oh well.
Will watch for the next one then. Thanks.
Gorgeous flower! If the flower was anything like the size of the bud, it must have been huge! These things never cease to amaze me.
What is the name of that flower Jan? Is it an epi? It looks gorgeous.
I haven't seen Sandy on this forum for a while. She's usually on every couple of days at least.
Annette, it's a dragon fruit. It's kinda epi. Dragon fruit is edible, flower only last one night.
I'm around, me and the doggy are both battered. He hurt his back and most take it easy . And my shoulder hurts, so have not been typing as much. hope to know soon if they will do surgery on it.
Sandy
I'm sorry about your shoulder hurting Sandy. What happened to Andre's back? I probably shouldn't have asked that as you won't feel like typing an answer.................
Hope you feel better soon.
Annette
