I purchased this cactus 9 yrs ago. It sits comfortably in my sunroom amongst my many other plants. This year it suprised me and decided to put out a bloom. I do have pics of the progression of the bloom, which took several days, but only stayed open for 24 hrs. then died. It is now putting out a 2nd bloom. As soon as I get the other pics developed I'll put a pic of it fully extended on. It is awesome! Can anyone tell me what type of cactus this is. I can not find it in any of my books. Thank you
