Mystery Dragon Fruit Flower

The mystery dragon fruit might reveal her true identity in a couple of months.  I discovered a flower button which will develop into a bud and then a flower.  If I'm lucky enough to harvest mature fruit, I can find out what color fruit flesh the plant produces. Of course I'll never be 100% positive as to its variety, but I'll settle for knowing the color of the flesh.  The color doesn't matter to me so long as the flavor is excellent.

On a side note, I have been watching certain areoles on the mystery plant for 2-3 weeks because they seemed to be swelling slightly.  It's amazing how fast the button appears seemingly overnight.  I check my plants daily, and there was no button.  Then, bang!  There is the button.
