NIGHT BLOOMING CEREUS. This is a name ap¬ 
plied for generations to any species of cactus which 
opens its flowers at night. The flowers are white, some 
times tinged with pink or cream shades and are often 
intensely fragrant. In addition to the above Cereus, 
the following are night blooming — Acanthocereus, 
Cephalocereus, Dendrocereus, Eriocereus, Harrisia, 
Hylocereus, Pilocereus, Roseocereus, Selenicereus, 
Trichocreus and Echinopsis. The latter two open at 
night, but remain open during the day. There 'are 
many others which can not be named here and some 
genera include both night and day flowering species.
