San Pedro Flower

I don't know if any of you remember, but a few months ago, I posted a picture about one of my San Pedros that had started to grow a small bud. Well the bud grew to about an inch long and stayed that way for at least a month, didn't grow or do anything. Then just a few days ago, I looked at it, and it had a massive growth spurt, and had actually began to look like a flower. Here's a pic of it that I took earlier today.

So, have any of you ever experienced anything like this? where the bud pops out of the side of the cactus, then doesn't do anything for a while, then grows 4 inches in 3 days? Also anyone have any estimates on how many days untill it fully blooms? Thank you, come again.

Heh, that's what almost every one of my friends who saw it said. I'll be sure to post some pics when it blooms.

Well I got this one as a cutting from a large san pedro that my friend has in his yard I'm not sure how old it is, but by the size of it, I'd say its fairly old....10+ years, at the least. I will be sure to keep you guys updated and post pics when it blooms....I will also make a point of smelling it frequently

Forsome reason I cant get those pics to show up, I suppose you can just copy the link and past it in the browser. Let's see if these ones work....
