Stunning! A netizen captured the entire blooming process of the Epiphyllum in 5 hours of time-lapse photography, so beautiful it's hard not to blink. Wishing everyone who sees it good luck, a flourishing full moon, and good health! 惊艳！网友5小时延时摄影拍下昙花盛开全过程，美到不舍眨眼。愿见者好运，花好月圆、人安康！@临溪 | People's Daily,Overseas

Last fall we shared a time-lapse video of an Epiphyllum oxypetalum, aka "queen of the night", flower blooming in our greenhouse. We put the camera up another night and got a shot of multiple flowers opening and closing overnight. | Tulsa Botanic Garden
