A Gardeners Forum Forums Gardening Reference Gardening in 2007 my "night blooming cereus" and its cold (sniff, sniff)

I have two questions about this plant, first: I was given a leaf cutting of this plant about 3 years ago and was told it is a night blooming cereus. So...is it?? I know this is the wrong are to ask this question but it also has a "cold", which leads me into question number 2: on the uderside of a couple of the leaves there are blackish/brownish spots that are somewhat "indented". It also looks like something munched on the end of a leaf. Hopefully, someone can help with the pictures I've provided...

yes, it is a night blooming cereus and yes, it looks munched!

not sure what to tell you about the munching, but it is a beautiful specimin.
