It’s always nicer when these flowers bloom together, rather than singly.
There was a beautiful full moon last night, and as luck would have it, a pair of our favourite night-blooming Keng Hwa flowers graced us with their presence.
Just look at this close up of the flower. Gorgeous, isn’t it?
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of looking at these beauties. Their petals are pristine white, as are the pollen-bearing anthers, and the yellow stigma and red style are in startling contrast with them.
Last night’s full moon – the camera doesn’t do it justice at all.
The flowers looked gorgeous in the bright moonlight (which of course isn’t reflected well in the photos), but the last one that bloomed tonight looked just as pretty even though it was raining lightly.
Tonight’s flower on its way to blooming fully. It was in the rain, so I couldn’t catch it in full bloom without getting the camera wet.
The Keng Hwa or Night-blooming Cereus flower remains one of our favourites!
