a lot of you have seen the plant that has taken over my kitchen window. i've had this night blooming cereus for at least 5 years. it grows and grows, but has never flowered. about a week ago, 2 buds popped up. i was convinced they would pop any night, but we waited. and waited. the buds fattened and every day i said "oh my god, it's totally gonna happen tonight."
well last night my monster plant finally blossomed. if i could insert a smell in this blog, you bet your ass i would. it was similar to a jasmine, but much more fragrant and filled the house with an amazing scent. it's been pretty incredible to watch these little babies grow, if you would like a cutting, please let me know. it may take years for the big payoff, but it's definitely worth it.
