About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

White night-blooming cereus (Epiphyllum oxypetalum), known in China as tan hua, is a forest cactus with long, flattened green stems. Mature plants produce large white flowers that open at night, combining layered petals with a striking central spray of stamens. The flowers' brief evening display gives the plant a special place in ornamental collections.

The Chinese expression tan hua yi xian evokes something beautiful that appears only briefly. Grow this cactus in a sheltered, frost-free setting with bright filtered light and a freely draining mix, allowing space for its arching stems and a close view of the evening flowers.
