This one is a southwestern native plant. It is actually a cactus called the night blooming Cerus. It is commonly called Queen of the Night.

The plant for the most part looks like a dead branch of a small shrub. About the third week in June the flowers will bloom at night. By noon they are shriveled and gone.

I got a picture of this one just after sun up.
