An update on my Night Blooming Cereus.
14 buddings.
The cereus is a very visually sexual plant (to me).

Well, isn't everything?
@AstralSmoke most things but not all.... dog poo isn't unique just stinky 
@Heidi68 I bet dogs would disagree.
@AstralSmoke true
@Heidi68 So, did I prove my point?
@AstralSmoke not exactly, uniqueness is in the eye of the beholder. So what may be unique to me, may simply be the normal for you (or a dog).
@Heidi68 When did they put uniqueness in the possession of the beholder? No one ever told me!
@AstralSmoke seems obvious to me
They are a unique plant, I don't know about sexual though......

The buddings get erect before blooming (into a beautiful flower) and then immediately go limp. Just an example.
Interesting, kinda evil looking.

How so?
@AstralSmoke Just a response. Didn't really take time to analyze.
@itsmedammit That sounds dangerous.
@AstralSmoke Really? It's a plant.
@itsmedammit Oh, you don't watch enough movies.
@AstralSmoke Yeah, I don't watch too many movies, but my reaction to the plant may have a seed from something, maybe Little Shop of Horrors. Anyway I think it is the spindly bits that look evil.
@itsmedammit It's actually a very lovely plant. I'll post again when it blooms.
