I aquired a small piece of this plant a few years ago from a family member , he called it Queen Of The Night. It grew from one piece into this tall vinelike plant with big leaves. I was told that it could get these big blossoms, and it would bloom at about 10 P.M. if the conditions were right Then a few weeks ago..they started to form..daily they grew...alot! Then today I could tell that one was about to bloom..and tonight when I walked out onto the patio the first thing that hit me was the strong fragrance....and then this! :cool:

They are beautiful, and they smell great, don't they.

We used to have one, but I think the cats did not like it or something. At some point it went backwards till we could not do anything to save it.

I'll try again when I find one.

Looks like it has a white aiptasia in the center:)

Next frag, hold for me...I have a little garden/jungle in my backyard that it would look nice in.

Haha :D It does look like an aiptasia in the middle. That is the kind I don't have to zap. Carole those are nice pictures thanks for sharing.
 
Thanks all! A few people have said it looked like an aiptasia..LOL and also referenced the Dennis The Menace Movie{I did'nt see it}. It was a beautiful thing..too bad they only last one night. There are two more blooms that look like they will pop tonight. I am curious why the strong fragrance and night blooming thing? Maybe bats or moths would go to it?
