My cactus in bloom

Look what I found in bloom this morning. Is it not gorgeous. Such a big bloom on such a small cactus. It only flowers for one day, but it still is really pretty.
It produces several flowers a year. :waving

That is a huge huge bloom for such a small cactus! A shame that it only lasts a day, I think that I'd bring it to work to enjoy all day! Are cactus blooms fragrant?

Well this one is not fragrant. I dont know about the other ones, but I don't mind I just love the bloom.
It's something else than only Vanda's.

It is indeed a fantastic bloom -- huge and lovely :)

Wow, Willeke, it is a beautiful bloom!

Thanks guys. It sure is very pretty. I only need to repot it. Than it can get much bigger, and also more blooms.

How exciting! Such a unique plant. I love it.

Yes is it not lovely. It is very different from orchids, but not less pretty.

That's amazing! What a cool bloom.

Thanks Tristan. I did say before that it was not fragrant, but I just noticed it is. I guess it has to do on what time of the day it is. It has a very sweet smell.
