Thank you for your comments. Tina, it was about 20cm across. The flower tube is hairless and is longer than the flower is wide . Mike. It's about 3ft tall , though it is just the middle segment of the stem , no growing point. That's why I'm keen for it to send out some new growth. It only opens only...

Cereus hexagonus
Flowering this morning. A lovely scent in the greenhouse.
A big cutting that flowers every year, though doesn't want to throw out any new growth. I've repotted this year so fingers crossed.

Fantastic flower. Is it heavily scented .
Always exciting a first flowering
Great photos

I agree with Phil
Lovely plant , though can take up a lot of room

That's an interesting blog, another tree to lookout for. It reminded me of another blue berry that of the Elaeocarpus ganitrus , that has ",structural coloration" that is the production of colour by microscopically structured surfaces fine enough to interfere with visible light. https://ww...

Lovey plant Ernie, looks like it's doing a dance, maybe the flamenco

Echinocereus acifer ( poly,,,) Los oreanos.
Flower opened today.

What a lovely flower. It looks like it would reflect ultraviolet light well. Or inspire an interior designer.

Wow , what a great plant. All mine are small mellon size , I find these slow growing, red or yellow spined type's.

I checked my other plant and it was infact the same name as the other one I posted earlier. Bulbine frutescens No flowers yet it's been a bit on the dry side. will put on the repot list. I know what you mean about the flowers now on this one they are much closer together. IMG_20210524_174431722~2.jp...
