Finally, after 4 years of growth, this epiphyllum blooms. Uh, yeah, the plant requires more sunlight for the flowers to make an appearance. I lost the hybrid name of this plant since the original cutting shrivelled up along with the inked-in description. So, I had to wait for a bloom to give me a hint. The hybrid's name is "Dream Maker" and makes a very large, pink flower.
This wouldn't be possible without the San Diego Epiphyllum Society's yearly sale. At the sale yesterday, I bought other hybrids like "Morocco", "Pegasus", "French Gold", "Clown" and "Siegfried". But, this time, I went with potted plants rather than cuttings.
