Night Blooming Cereus Blossoms for Fourth Time This Year
The fourteen year old night blooming Cereus owned by H. D. Baldwin has bloomed for the fourth time this year. Some claim the cactus blooms once every seven years, but Baldwin says it flowers annually with thirty to fifty blossoms each cycle. Buds form on leaf edges, opening in a week or ten days. Flowers are wax like and about six inches across. Normally opening at seven to eight pm, a recent cold spell delayed the bloom until morning.
