A rare Amazonian cactus at the Cambridge University Botanical Gardens has finally flowered – after an eight year wait.

Thousands logged on to a live stream to watch the first and second flowers come into bloom.

A total of four blooms from its Strophocactus Wittii were expected, with one being damaged and the fourth yet to open.
