Strophocactus wittii
1913Summary
Strophocactus wittii, synonym Selenicereus wittii, known as the Amazon moonflower, is a species of plant in the genus Strophocactus in the cactus family (Cactaceae), and is one of several species commonly called "moonflowers". It was first described in 1900 by Karl Moritz Schumann and is one of three species of cactus found in the central Amazon basin. The flat, ribbonlike, root climbing stem grows epiphytically on the trunks of trees in seasonally flooded forests of the Amazon basin, which is regularly flooded for a few weeks each year. During this time, the seeds spread through the water, which is unique within the cactus family....read more on Wikipedia.
