Beautiful! Love the darker sepals on those flowers. Especially striking on the top flower, first photo.

Very beautiful! Kinda look like trichocereus ... do they smell good? Seems like it would be a good hanging plant and i need me one of them right now

Nice! Do you have a photo of the bud before the flower opens? I think this plant gives you a 2-fer. An ooooh when the bud is fully formed, and then the final reveal. But with a name like Harris-ia, you know it's got to be good! (Oblique nod to our Am-Can friend.)

Holy Cow!!! That's just an amazing flower. It looks like you have several more buds to open yet. Will it blossom down the total length of the stem?

apfire,

Very nice - I remember my first one, and was very enthused, too.

D,

Thanks for the nod - like it I'm also white and smell faintly of aw-shucked corn.
