Orchid Cactus

Aka epiphyllum. This is the first bloom on a cutting my sis- and bro-in-law brought when they visited a couple of weeks ago. Just a few days ago it was a small bud--I was surprised this morning when I saw that it had opened overnight!

So classic...so pretty. I love the droplets of dew on the back petals.
