Tonight our night-blooming cereus plants flowered! We have had them for nearly 10 years and this is the first time. Each plant has two large white stink-ily beautiful flowers. Some quick research suggests that these guys are pollinated by certain nocturnal hawk moths. More info can be found on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphyllum_oxypetalum).
