While most plants flower for weeks, orchid cacti only blossom for a few short hours a year, and always at night. Botanists name it Epiphyllum oxypetalum, but the plant's elaborate, nocturnal mating dance has earned it the nickname of “Queen of the Night” or “Lady of the Night.”
When you first plant your queen of the night cactus, you are going to want to find a location that is relatively shaded for at least part of the day. Ideally, allow it to settle into its new home in the shade. The weather should be more than 55 degrees Fahrenheit when the flower is first planted as well.
