Midnight blossoms
« on: September 24, 2010, 03:31 »
The middle photo is the one I like the best, taken after midnight.  The other 2 photos are for reference.

This flower only blossoms once every few years, and only late at night, in the dark.

Midnight blossoms



In the morning, the blossoms shrivel up in the daylight, and fall off a couple days later.

About 5 years old.  First time it has blossomed.  It'll be another few years before it blossoms again.
