Description
The Argentine Giant Cactus is one of the deserts most intriguing species of flowering cacti. The blossoms open at night and close during the day to protect themselves from the heat. The night blossoms attract night pollinators such as bats and moths. The blossoms seem to react to temperature rather than light as they will often stay open on cool, cloudy days. The white blossoms are quite large and sometimes seem to overpower the cactus.
