Stenocactus 'Rio de Mayo'

[Gigantea]

I haven't posted in a while all. I've had some issues recovering my account, plus I had a computer failure... but I am back to say hi! And to post a pic of my Stenocactus which has been flowering for a while now out in my front rock bed.

Beautiful plant and flowers!
Do they have a scent?

As far as I can tell, they don't. However, I have seen flowers have no smell one year and then have fragrance the next when more mature. This is the first time it's bloomed, so it could be that. Or, it could be because we've had a light rain every morning it's bloomed so the scent has been washed away. One day I will know for sure.
