Description
Photograph of a small blossom of a night blooming cactus (cereus), [s.d.]. A faint stem extends from the background on the top to the bright, lightly-colored blossom at center. The small cluster of thin stamen are surrounded by short, delicate petals. A second layer of what appear to be long, thick petals create a star shape around the inner layer of petals.
