This flower bud reminds me of a giant strawberry for some reason
Not sure what colour the flower will be as it is flowering for the first time from seed, originally from Doug Rowland as Trichocereus hybrid apparently from a well known hybridiser, I’ve lost the details unfortunately
Giant Strawberry
