This year;Becasue of negligence we have to trimmed off the leaves/cactus.
Believe me the (blind?) belief of blooming of *Epiphyllum oxypetalum in once in *seven years is so much in common people that i have seen in my colony that ; high designated citizens have invited their friends, relatives for pooja of this *Epiphyllum oxypetalum (orchid cactus) / the **Night blooming Cereus.* *Thanks goes to these online help and groups like efloraofindia,gardentia, flowersofindia; who forces us to confirm the information available before fixing up in our mind.* Sorry for this long note, Regards, geeta rane PS: FYI: In whole of VOF program; Mr Pankaj Kumarji's (photo of) Brahama-kamal -Saussure obvallata (DC.)
