Description
This amazing, striking, Belle of the Ball,night-blooming cactus flower only reveals her beauty for a short time, just long enough for you to remember why she is the one that you wait for all year, why the sight of her is enough to make you want to live in the barren desert all year long. Her fragrance, blooms, and beauty are rare and unlike all the others she only blooms at night and for a very short time. If you miss this Cereus flower and you will have to wait a whole year long before she graces the desert with the appearance of her blooms again. Fine Art America watermark will not appear on purchased artwork.
