    I have this plant and have started about 10 more from same plant. Once they start to bloom they continue each year and they bloom for around 6 months in California. I just love it, most spectacular flower from any plant. Thanks for sharing your wonderful video.
    Mine has color throughout the inside and watching them open and display is great!

    I have one and it blooms continuously throughout the year. It is constantly forming buds and the fragrance is simply intoxicating!. It fills my bedroom and wakes me at 1am to go out and indulge in her beauty.
    Trick to getting her to bloom is keeping solidly dry, and dunking her in water whne the leaves get dehydrated.
    It really is a spectacular display that has blessed me with over 47 blooms at a time.....

    Hello, We have a same flowering plant in our house garden. for many years, to be exact from 2004 onward. The plant first bloomed, 2 nos in 2006. Since then it has been blooming almost every year. when we started dating the plant more , it started blooming more often and the number of flowers also increased. And a miracle happens in 2019. our plant bloomed FOUR times during the year 2019. The flowers bloomed on 02nd July (5 nos), 12 August (4 nos), 30 st (4 nos) and on 23 December (4 nos). Thus a total of 17 flowers within a matter of 171 days . But the most exciting thing is, if you take the gap between two successive blooming, you will find that the gap between 02nd an the 3rd blooming was only just 18 days.

    WOW! I have three of these night-blooming cereus plants that I grew from cuttings, but I usually only have one or two flowers blooming at the same time (I have one blooming right as I type this, in fact, with another one on the same plant set to "pop" tomorrow). Knowing how strong the perfume from ONE flower is, I can only imagine what the house must have been like with that many blooming at once! That is amazing!

      @@anujaiswal7342 I've had these blossoming for the past twelve years (typically I get 12-15 flowers in a season). They bloom at night from 7-9 (flower starts to open) and droop around 4 am or later. Full opening is about midnight to 2 am. Rarely (perhaps once or twice), they have opened later (midnight-ish) and droop at 6 or 7 am. So a bit of variation (depending on weather conditions) is not unusual.

    I have had mine three years, this is the first time it bloomed. It was worth the wait. I took the advice of a friend, and with held water in January, then started watering again in Febuary. It had blossoms the size of dinner plates! That was last month. Now, it has twelve more buds! I am truly happy. Note: It has to be root bound to bloom, so resist the urge to repot until not blooms or buds are in sight :) Good luck!

    Interesting ... I have both Selenicereus grandiflorus and Epiphyllum oxypetalum planted in the yard, here in Florida and both of them flower multiple times each year. It depends on the rainfall and general weather. Also, some orchid bloom booster fertilizer seems to help.

My Selenicereus Grandflora flowered last week in the middle of the night and the bloom was finished by dawn but soooo worth seeing and even more impressive then the EF.

    Well, this answers a question I've had about them. I was given a rooted cutting from a plant brought to Canada from China years back and last year, I had one bloom on it. Since there was only one blossom, I wondered if a plant with many buds would all flower on the same night or open on successive nights. They're so lovely that it's a pity the flowering isn't spaced out over a few nights. I left the dead blossom on for a couple more days as I considered it lovely even after the flower had wilted.

  • @Sunflowers159
    @Sunflowers159 7 років тому

    WOW!!! I wish mine would do that. I've had it for about 10 years. It was like a small tree. It throws out a lot of aerial roots and plenty of leaves - all on the top - but nothing else, and certainly no flowers. I moved house a couple of days ago and I've had to cut it down from its 1.5 metre height to about 1 metre to transport it so I'm hoping that if it doesn't die it might grow a bit more evenly. I've also got a smaller epiphyllum with similar flowers to this, but they're red and I get about 3 each year which last for about a week or so.

      During the late 80's and throughout the 90's hardly a week passed that I didn't host a dinner or cocktail party for friends and family. The back deck and garden were always popular with the guests but evenings when the Epyphillum were in bloom were special, always memorable. In 1998 a great flood washed all that away except the memories and I haven't hosted or attended a party since, hadn't had the desire. Thanks, I had never thought about Epyphillum infused liquor. I'm smiling just imagining looking at this drink! That's worth sharing with friends!

    I checked one of these that was blooming last night (i’m in Australia). The size of the flower is impressive but at 10.30pm i could hardly smell any fragrance and what i did wasn’t sweet. The smaller flower of epiphyllum angularis (which i had blooming the same night) was much stronger and much more like a perfume. Having said that I slept with a cut flower from the angularis next to my bed a few weeks ago, and had some crazy dreams until i move it out of the bedroom - so maybe it’s too strong.

    I have had this plant for 8 years and never knew what it was. I got a 4 inch clipping from a stranger. It lived in my darkish living room for 3 years and did nothing at all, it just sat there, didn't grow but didn't die. I took it to my very bright work office and it went nuts. Its now 4 feet high, and I have cultivated about 10 plants off it. No blooms. But at least I know what it is!

      Hi,
      10yrs ago my brother got a couple of leaves from someone who didn't know what it was. About that same time my brother gave our mom a leaf to get it going. None of us could figure out the name of the plant until it bloomed. Now that we know, I think we can do a better job of yielding some blooms. Its a beautiful and interesting plant. Good luck and have fun with yours :)
