Plant identification

Hallo,

Can you identify the plant in the photo below – I believe it could be in the genus – Cereus, but are not quite sure what it is. It is a ‘hanging’ plant with ‘litted’ leaves. Night blooming, very fragrant flowers. The flowers and fragrance last only one night.

Thank you
Isabel

It does appear to be in the Cereus genus, but I would be unable to identify it exactly. You can take it to your local extension service, and they should be able to pinpoint it for you.
