Karma I think we have the same unknown. I have waited for it to bloom for 3 years.

I was surprised that the flower lasted a week. Is that normal? I have a white one and the bloom lasted one day.

I assume the white is a night blooming and the red is????? :hmm:

Yep it depends on the variety as how long the bloom will last. Usually the night bloomers are a one to two day bloom, where as the deeper shades can last upwards of
a couple weeks here. We don't have the heat so this is why I have been told they last longer here. Here is the latest bloomer!
