"I name you Cereus, a rare desert bloom. The blossoms last for a single night, closing with the dawn's first kiss. A year of passion in a single night." From The Poison Priestess, the fourth book of The Silk & Steel Saga. In case you were wondering, the botanical name is Selenicereus grandiflorus, a night blooming member of the cactus family.
