Grand OpeningThe blooming cycle of Night-Blooming Cereus is one of those feats of nature that has me scratching my head in wonder: how does this leggy, ungainly-looking plant produce perfect little buds that develop from a half inch to large, complex and extraordinarily beautiful blooms in just a little more than one week? And that’s not all there is to this story. The Cereus flowers bloom once each year opening at night for one spectacular show, then close and are gone by sunrise. This is how it began: July 16, 2014
