The exposures are bad because of the adverse lighting conditions (small portable light), but this was about 11:45 PM last night...

Thankfully, it was still open this morning (about 7:40 AM) so I could capture more detail and its subtle colorings.

The next is what was just tagged
Echinopsis grandiflorus with a pure white flower. I was not aware this would be a night-bloomer, but when I checked on the
oxygona, this one had begun to open. However, it did not fade throughout the day today, it just kept opening wider. The first cactus I ever grew (and never got very tall) was a
Trichocereus spachianus This looks like a plain old
Tricho to my inexperienced eye. So what is the visible difference, if any, between an ordinary 'old fashioned' one and a hybrid
Echinopsis/Trichocereus?
