This bloomed today. We are all much amused.

The photo doesn't capture the shimmer on the petals, like really good silk. Also doesn't show that the flower was about 8" across when fully open.

Funny thing is, it's a big, ratty looking cactus, nothing special except for the few days a year when it does this.
