Angel Trumpets and Night Cereus

 
 
Posted by Picasa


I can't decide which smells more wonderful tonight, the yellow angel trumpet or the night cereus. These are great plants for enjoying in the evening. The night cereus has 8 blooms tonite (well, technically there are 4 pots, but most of the blooms are on 2). Last night there were 4 or 5 and tomorrow night there will be at least 4 more.Although the angel trumpet is beautiful in the day and has a faint fragrance if you put your nose in it, the real fragrance wafts forth after dark. I think I will take my chair and go out there and sit. Ummmm An odd thing is that my pink angel trumpet is also blooming and has no detectable fragrance.
