Not really. Lol! It's a very common cactus here...there's so many beautiful, very tall, large specimens around. This plant never produces fruit because it's neglected in a pot.

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

You most definitely would love the flowers from the dragon fruit. I have many buds on mine right now.

Here's my dragon fruit's flowers from last year:
