Kadupul flower (The Queen of the night)

The Queen of the night Pure white petals, spread out just like those of a white water lily. Garlanded by the long leaves of the cactus, which create a trail of a bitter scent, a magnificent flower blooms just one night each year. Known as 'Kadupul' in native Sinhala, it is commonly called the "Queen of the night". The blossom emits a soothing scent that encapsulates many, yet even for the busy pollinators its pleasure can only be enjoyed for a few hours on a single night.
