Queen of the Night Symbolism: Instant Beauty; Immortality; Luck and Prosperity
Queen of the night is one of the most exotic indoor plants. The flowers from this unique plant are funnel-shaped with clean white petals that release a sweet aromatic fragrance to match the breathtakingly beautiful blooms. Each flower blooms on a single quiet night and fades within hours, making the plant a moonlight beauty. The Queen of the night, normally blooms once a year, and up to 6 blooms, depending on the size. However, the plants sold on this site have the potential to bloom like the mother, 9 times in one year. The mother plant (pictured – photo 9) blooms every year, several times a year beginning as early as February through October. One bloom cycle was 17 blooms.
The Queen of the Night, Night Blooming Cereus is a drought-tolerant and low maintenance plant. Allow the soil to dry completely between watering and place the plant in a prominent location, as a “Queen” to receive adequate sunlight – partial to full sun. Fertilize once in Spring and once she starts to bloom, fertilize after every bloom cycle completes. If she blooms nine times in a year as my mother plant often does, then fertilize 9 times, following the end of each blooming cycle.
