Hi Julie.  Happy Birthday!!!  I bet you never got flowers like these before.  

 

Years ago, Sharon gave me a cutting of her Night blooming Cereus.  It rode in the back seat all the way home.  Last year it started blooming, and this year it has bloomed twice.  This time with three flowers!!!  They started opening about 10 pm, and were fully open (this picture) by 11.  Each flower is bigger than your open hand, maybe 8-10 inches across.  And they smell heavenly!!  Wish we coulda had a party.  They closed up about 4 am: done......until next time.  

 

I wish you had been here.  Hope your birthday is HAPPY!!!  ❤️❤️❤️
