The latest addition to the "Mark White Gallery" is this fine photo of a night blooming cereus being visited by a bee.
Kauai is blessed with this fascinating cactus. It grows on the south shore and can be seen by the curious person who is on the lookout. "One of the strangest plants of the desert, the Night-bloomiing Cereus is a member of the Cactus Family that resembles nothing more than a dead bush most of the year. It is rarely seen in the wild because of its inconspicuousness. But for one midsummer's night each year, its exqusitely scented flower opens as night falls, then closes forever with the first rays of the morning sun." For more see N-BC.
