I have to brag a little...

 

 

Can you believe this size of this epicactus flower?  It's the size of a dinner plate!  The plant is kind of ugly - a long gawky thing with fleshy, cactus-like leaves/stems.  But OMG, when those blossoms open - what a show!  The flower only lasts a couple days, then it's wait 'til next year.
