These images are of an invasive, climbing Cactus (Hylocereus Undatus)
known here as the "Queen of the Night" originating from Central America.
They only flower for few hours at night & in the early morning so this
was a lucky sighting. I rushed home from my jog to get my camera. The
pollinating agents are Bats. These plants became a problem in the Natal
coastal forests & a big effort was necessary to eradicate them. Scroll
for the other.
