look at all the flower buds on my selenicereus grandiflorus plant! 🌱widely known in india as the “brahma kamalam” (lord brahma’s flower), the selenicereus grandiflorus is a cactus species originating from the antilles, mexico and central america 🌵 the species is commonly referred to as “nightblooming cereus” or “queen of the night” because of its sweet, vanilla-scented flowers which bloom once or several times a year and ONLY at night time, and they wilt several hours after blooming. 🌸

i’ll try to post a photo of the flowers once they bloom (if i can get the photo before they wilt) 😁

the flower bud in the second and third pictures was infected with oleander (a.k.a. milkweed) aphids (the lil yellow bugs). and it’s well known that ladybirds love eating different species of aphids! 🐞🐞🐞

So the last mango I grew - the seed pod kinda split while still in gestation. Now it looks like two mango stalks are growing from one seed. Wonder if these can be split into two separate trees.

The first mango tree is about 1 year old now, and 1.5feet high. Both are doing pretty well right now, but it’s going to be years we get anything. But at least the leaves are gorgeous!

Beautiful!
