Nice! I have a seedling which will probably be old enough this time next year! So excited to see it for myself!
I have a theory that these imitate night blooming cactus flowers like the one in this link. The range overlaps! That may mean that it is pollinated by bats!

This is cool! And would be really interesting mimic if this species was attracting bats!

I adore this species! I have a seedling rapidly growing but it'll be ~2 years before blooms nonetheless. Is yours an alba? I see no pigmentation in the bloom, although it's hard to tell with this species...
