Trichocereus flowers are like buses, you wait for one then several come along together, I have white and pink out at the moment.
But the yellow and peach are beautiful , and the double is just superb Sylvia.

Great flowers! Out of curiosity, i thought the plants would need to be bigger to flower? Are they very old, and do you have any tips to encourage them to flower? Thanks
