ABOUT THE FLOWERS
Queen of the Night is famous for its large, typically white, fragrant flowers that open at night and usually last a short time. Flowering depends on plant maturity, light, temperature, and growing conditions. A young or newly shipped plant may not flower immediately.

BARE-ROOT SHIPPING
The listing describes the plant as rooted and shipped without soil. Confirm the exact root condition and packaging before purchase. Once received, inspect the roots and plant the specimen in an airy, well-draining medium. Allow any damaged roots to dry before watering if necessary, and avoid keeping the medium continuously wet while the plant adjusts.

PLEASE NOTE
The listing's botanical spelling should be verified as Epiphyllum oxypetalum. The stated 10–16 inches appears to describe plant length, but confirm the measurement method and whether the order includes one plant or multiple pieces.

Live plants naturally vary in stem shape and appearance. Flowers are seasonal and are not guaranteed upon arrival.
