The flowers opened! And then closed in the evening! And then opened again the next day! Plants are amazing.

A new life - Longueuil, QC.

(Moving into my first apartment with my fiance (2022). A beautiful flower sprouting for the first cactus we got, 2 years ago, a metaphor for our new life and letting go of what used to hold us back)

The night blooming cereus had a second set of blooms this year. This time I got up early in the morning to see if it stayed open all night/ Here it is in full glory in early dawn.

I got this baby cactus as a birthday gift to myself 3 years ago. I named her Posey.

Today Posey bloomed 3 flowers, and has 2 more on the way. I'm so proud of my baby.

Here's one of my favorite hybrids....Akersia x Echinopsis hybrid MAMACITA by Kakteen Vers. Total masterpiece!

I also recorded a flower video!
