If you’re looking for a Night‑Blooming Cereus with real history behind it — not a big‑box clone — these are the ones you want.
My family has been growing and sharing this exact line of Night‑Blooming Cereus for about 100 years. The original plant lived in Kentucky, and over the decades it was passed from person to person as cuttings and whole plants, spreading through surrounding states and eventually making its way to Huntsville, Alabama. My father and I have been propagating this line for years, keeping the tradition alive.
This particular strain is an extreme bloomer. Mature plants reliably put out 20–40 blossoms per season, sometimes more in strong years. If you’ve ever seen a Cereus bloom at night, you know how special that is — huge, fragrant white flowers that open all at once and fill the air with a scent you’ll never forget.
🌱 What I’m selling
Healthy, well‑rooted Night‑Blooming Cereus starters in 1‑quart nursery bags, grown from this heirloom family plant. These are not fragile or freshly stuck cuttings — they’re established young plants ready to take off once you pot them up.
💵 Price
$10–$20 each, depending on size and age.
(Larger or multi‑stem bags are on the higher end.)

Local pickup in East Huntsville, AL.
