Hi everyone!

I want to share with you all some pictures of a flower that sometimes brightens the day with it's beautiful blossoms.

Selenicereus grandiflorus is a cactus species originating from the Antilles, Mexico and Central America. The species is commonly referred to as queen of the night.

Depending on the conditions this flower can bloom at any time of the year, but only in the evening and only for a few hours. Also tends to have a strong scent.

It can grow up to 10 m or even more. But it's quite easy to multiply, you only have to take a leaf and plant it separately.

Is this Queen of the Night growing in your home? How tall it is right now?

Yes, it's growing in my house, I'd say it's about 1,5 m.
