Waking up on Janury 1st 2018 and walking into my office room to check the markets, when i could see outside through the window to the other side of the house, our beautiful San Pedro flowers opening up!! It’s been months..

What a sight to see, i must share it with you if you haven't seen! If the day wasn't going great already from Steemit pumping up to $5 as well as other crypto currencies doing very well. Our San Pedro flowers opened up!

I've been dying to see what they would look like for months now.

It all started back at our old house, i saw some fluff looking fluff-balls on the tip of the pedro, nearly brushed them all off thinking it was a spider buiilding a web of some sort but i must of got distracted and left it. A couple days passed by and i noticed the fluff balls getting a little bigger and bigger every time i would check them out so i went along to see what's going on.

I always knew the San Pedro and the 3 other similar cactuses are mystical and very powerful plants, having deep roots in spiritual and cultural hackgrounds, as well as being able to convert the power from the sun into it’s physical shape, product an extractable life changing compound and produce such beautiful flowers, it’s trually incredible to witness and think deeply about what the plant is capable of doing.

Below are photos taken every few days over a period of about 2 months finally to reveal the flower on January 1st 2018! Hope you enjoy these photos, please like and support

This is the first fluff ball i noticed:

Yes the flowers are definitely breath taking, I remember my first T. pachanoi 'PC' flower.
Is that a T. bridgesii next to it?
