Attention! I'm bragging 😅
My cacti are blooming again, which makes me extremely happy. Unfortunately, they have one drawback: they bloom only for one day (for me around June 15-20). Therefore, I had to make sure not to miss this moment.
The flowers visible in the photo had a diameter of over 10 cm, so they were really large and incredibly beautiful. I couldn't smell them. Maybe this is the reason that during this very short flowering time I did not see any bee or other insect sitting nearby or even coming inside.
If someone would like their cacti to bloom, here is some advice: put a cactus on the south-facing balcony every hot summer and wait for a dozen or so years. If conditions are favorable to this plant, flowers will appear, even several on one plant. At first, small protrusions appear, and from them a stem grows, about 20 cm long, ending first with a bud and then a flower.

Uwaga! Będę się chwalić 😅
Znów zakwitły u mnie kaktusy, z czego jestem niezmiernie zadowolony. Niestety, mają one jedną wadę: kwitną tylko przez jeden dzień (u mnie w okolicach 15 - 20 czerwca). Dlatego, musiałem pilnować, aby nie przegabić tego momentu.
Widoczne na zdjęciu kwiaty miały średnicę ponad 10 cm, zatem były naprawdę duże i niebywale piękne. Nie byłem w stanie wyczuć ich zapachu. Może to jest powodem, że przez ten bardzo krótki czas kwitnienia nie widziałem, by jakaś pszczoła lub inny owad usiadł w pobliżu czy nawet wszedł do środka.
Jeśli ktoś chciałby, żeby i jego kaktusy zakwitły to podaje radę: postaw, każdego upalnego lata, kaktusa na balkonie od południowej strony i czekaj kilkanaście lat. Przy przychylnych tej roślinie warunkach pojawią się kwiaty, nawet kilka na jednej roślinie. Na początku pojawiają się małe wypustki, a z nich wyrasta łodyga, długa na ok. 20 cm, zakończona najpierw pąkiem, a potem kwiatem.
