The World Best Flower Named Dutchman’s Pipe Cactus

in flower •  7 years ago 


The scientific name for Dutchman’s Pipe Cactus is Epiphyllum Oxypetalum, a name that covers a large variety of cactus that is native to the Latin countries of Mexico and Brazil in the Southern America. It can grow up to 20 feet in height which is almost 6.1m. It requires moist soil for growth and with dark green branches, it blooms in late spring and early summer. However, it blooms for only 1 or 2 days around the 30th of May, thus, making it a novelty. Each flower can be 11 inches long and 5 inches wide that blooms when the sun sets completely. Its fragrance is deep and fresh which accentuates as the flower sets to bloom.
