Don't fall asleep next to the pod! Nature sure is a strange creature. Very cool!

[MentalLapse]

Haha, beware of the pod :)

It seems a shame that the flowers only open once then drop off. Great video!

[MentalLapse]

Thanks Milly. Each flower only lasts one day but I just took a quick glance at the cactus and it has well over 50 buds in one stage of blooming or another. It's actually been quite entertaining because it's been blooming for a month and most nights will have 2 or 3 flowers open. My only complaint is that it happens in the middle of the night, lol :)

Hey Bob, I loved it. It was just like a ballet, and worth the wait.

Cheers from Keikocat

Hello Anita. I just noticed my other big cactus (a different type) has some flower buds, so there may be a second cactus video coming :)

Nice job, I'm looking to try this on a friend's San Pedro cactus soon. Somewhat confused by your description. Did you just leave the camera taking pictures of the cactus for a few days? If so how did you get the different views?

[MentalLapse]

Chris, I added an expanded explanation in the side bar that I hope will answer your question. And thanks for the nice comment.

[bwlfp]

ha ha ha, thanks for the explanation, that makes sense to me now. Clever technique!

[NyteShift6]
