I am trying to find out what type of plant this is. I started it from a leaf that fell off my sister's plant. Her long stems are about 8' tall that was started 5 years ago.
Hardiness Zone: 5a
By KC-n-IL from Peoria, IL
It is not large enough or clear enough to tell what it is,good luck.
It might be a night blooming cereus.
it is an orchid cactus,
some of them bloom at night white and yellow
and I have one that blooms during the day which is bright pink
Without any possible mistake this is a Broad-Leafed Epiphyllum popular name is Queen of the Night, because the flowers open at night, the most beautiful flowers for their colour : orange or pink or pure yellow or white and the most incredible fragrance.
It is a night blooming cerus plant, it is in the succulent family and only blooms once a year, but it is beautiful.
I have one too, had it for more than a decade & it has never bloomed. I knew it was a succulent, but never knew the proper name.
It is a night blooming cereus. Interesting enough, in Puerto Rico it is referred to as lady of the night, because it flowers open at night and by morning it's closed. I have one that blooms in white. They are beautiful.
Look at this night blooming cactus (cereus). It began with two sprigs from my best friend, Eddie, who propagated it for me. Two years and an abundant amount of leaves/cacti, it bloomed!
My friend gave me a start of this odd looking plant. I thought I had killed it, but the other day I was surprised when I saw this awesome flower. Does anyone know the name of it?
This is a night blooming cactus. The hummingbirds and bees love it and they were on it last night.
