As we wee leaving around 10 pm. By 6 am this morning, the blossoms had withered. They bloom once. If you went inside at 7 pm thinking you'd check it out 'tomorrow', you would miss the whole show.

Very cool! How did you know about this particular cactus? And how did you know this night would be the night? Thanks for sharing! That's really cool...

We were at dinner at a friend's house, and it is their cereus. They had been watching the bud elongate all week, and therefore thought the time was close. So we took the first look at 5 (wish I had taken that picture), and the change by 7 was so dramatic, we thought "this is it!". We were just lucky to be visiting them last night. They sent a picture of the withered blossom this morning.
