This special catus grows in tropical rainforests and has large wide meaty leaves. The flower is huge, white, and nocturnal. Blooms at night hours, hence the name. One of the most exotic indoor plants. The plant is common around Veracruz, Mexico, a coastal area that borders the Gulf of Mexico. In this area, the weather is extremely humid, and the temperatures vary quite broadly, from 60 to 120 F, with a rainy season that lasts from May to October. Propagation Methods: by dividing rhizomes,This is an unusuel plant.
Queen of the night plants are in the cacti family, and, as the name suggests, they produce a spectacular, fragrant, white flower that opens in the nighttime, closing during daylight. Native to the desert of the southwest United States and the Central and South Americas, with proper care, you can grow a queen-of-the-night cactus as a houseplant or in your rock garden landscape.
