Thank you very much for your kind comments. I was not able to log on to your photobucket site to see your photos. Mahalo and aloha.

I just had one of these flower at my place, and I've lived here for 8 and a half years and never seen it bloom until now. I'm in Brisbane, Australia.

I have this plant outside in the summer in Columbia, SC. Last year I had 24 blooms open in the same evening. What a sight and fragrance.

Hello! http://www.pbase.com/eli500/image/34631777 - here is something similar, only yellow inside, and it is open only one day...

This is very beautiful. I only know its Chinese name. Its stunning beauty lasts very short, maybe only a few night hours.
