Photos:Cactus Blooms

Epiphyllum Blooms from my backyard. Epi's are cactus plants that bloom several times a year. The blooms open at night; each bloom lasts only one night, then folds up with the morning light, never to open again. The flowers are quite fragrant and large. These bloomed over the July 4th holiday.
