    Another (different) cactus flower

    Bloomed last night. I got it this morning as (I thought) it was closing. Seems to be staying open during the day. Cacti are strange in their blooming habits…

    It is another from my potted cacti. I've long since forgotten all the Latin names for them. I'll work on the identification.

    How lovely! What a beautiful flower, funny it should be on a cactus- it appears so delicate. Do they have a fragrance?
