The fruit is very colorful and last a long time on the plant.

A friend gave me a long leaf of this plant and I cut it into 4 inch sections, dipped the ends in root hormone and it rooted in just a few days. I shared the plants and had blooms by late summer the next year.

Epiphyllum hookeri, bloomed in early morning of 4/16/06

This is the bloom on my Night Blooming Cereus Plant taken last year. A friend had given me cuttings from her plant which I rooted in water and then potted. It seems to love being pot-bound.

This one grows crazy in zone9, it blooms 4 times during three months, and it is so easy to root from cutting.

Another view of those beautiful flowers, you can even make soup out of them :-)

Have abused this plant for two years, and not taken good care of it, froze it, dried it, hot full sun, etc. and this is how it rewards me. I like this plant. (Florida panhandle)

Buds getting ready to open any day now
by rntx22 Nov 7, 2008 1:33 AM
Several buds close to opening
by rntx22 Nov 7, 2008 1:33 AM
The fruit forms when the flower gets pollinated (by bats or moths??? I am not sure.) It is sweet. Not sure if I was supposed to eat it though :)

Newly forming flower buds. My plant is more orange colored due to a lot of sun exposure. I kind of like it :)
by rntx22 Nov 7, 2008 1:33 AM
They bloom in the evening; this is what it looked like 24 hours later - the next day. A little saggy

Flower bud of Hookeri epiphyllum about 3-4 days old
by tuffy09 Aug 28, 2010 11:19 AM
I put my epiphyllum in a cage so it would take up less space and it makes easier to cover in winter with out braking lots of leaves off.
