At last ! Epiphyllum "Yellow" is opening her beautiful flowers .
The outer petals are yellow and the inner ones are ivory . Like Cornish Clotted Cream .
They benefit , colour wise , from having a cold winter .They get a better or much stronger colour .
I keep them dry through the winter months .... only covering them with fleece or sheets of newspaper if there is a serious freeze forecast .
Three more buds to go , although I think that small one might drop off .
They will probably be fully open tonight . Moth pollenated 🦋
I will take some cuttings after it finishes blooming .
All my Epies need a good tidy up .
Made my day ! love Debbie 💐 x
Stunning, well worth the wait.
