#ColorChallenge - White Night Queesn

Dear Steemians!

Today I went out to take this picture of the Flower Queen of Night (Selenicereus grandiflorus).

Queen of nights is a cactus species originating from the Antilles, Mexico, and Central America. The species is commonly referred to as the queen of the night, night-blooming cereus, large-flowered cactus, sweet-scented cactus or vanilla cactus.

Cactus is the remedy for enfeeblement of the heart. An old-school writer of prominence has said of it that cactus is the only remedy that will quicken a slow heart. While there are some who declare cactus totally inert as a medicine, there are others who claim for it great value even in structural alterations of the heart. The verdict of Eclectic practitioners, who are the largest users of the drug, is that cactus is a remedy chiefly for functional disorders of the heart due to nervous origin. It is, therefore, a nerve remedy primarily and a heart remedy secondarily. Eclectics have also noted that it improves the nutrition of the heart muscle and thus is, in a measure, a structural remedy also. By improving the nutrition of the organ it is possible, in some instances, to correct structural abnormalities. Valvular troubles have been noted to gradually disappear under its prolonged administration. Unlike digitalis it does not disorder the stomach nor is it cumulative. Cactus acts upon the vessels through the vaso-motor apparatus.
