Someone tell me I am not crazy!

Vista, CA(Zone 10a)

I almost kicked a bud off this plant when walking by it at my local nursery today, the foliage was hidden behind about a dozen other plant, bud the buds were sticking out as if calling to me to bring them home, how much is too much, i have never payed this much for an epi before, but i have also never bought one this size with 2 buds!! ($75!?!) Seemed like deal. Does anyone know when I should expect a bloom, tonight, tomorrow? I have no idea what kind of epi this is, maybe an oxypetlum...? Isn't it beautiful!

And then finally around 10...

I can't believe how photogenic these guys are - I am usually so horrible with the camera, but i couldn't seem to take a bad picture!

Good for you!! They are fun!!
It looks like Epiphyllum oxypetalum. A larger plant like that will flower in several waves over the Summer months outside here in NJ.
