Beautiful! Is this a night blooming plant? Is there a scent? My neighbor had a night blooming cyrious (sp?) that she nutured for 5-6 years till it bloomed. (She could make rocks grow & bloom.. :roll:) Had the most wonderful scent! I still remember her running over & getting us kids up out of bed @ 12:30AM on a school night to see it. Was huge & looked somewhat like your pic from what I can remember(was 10-11yrs old..) Congratulations!!

Thats really NICE!!!
Is it some type of orchid?
The center looks like a starfish of some sort!
Will it get more flowers or is there gonna be a bunch of them?

Suprstkr. Holy smoking midnight flowers!!! Now that must have been a thing of such beauty, and I can imagine, through my mind's eye, what this scent the flower must have emitted, you are a very fortunate person to have witnessed this event, after so many, many years. Beautiful and most wonderful day in this great life we all live, love and share. Cindi
