American Beauty is a selection (cultivar) of Hylocereus guatemalensis. It is self-fertile. Getting the pollen from the anthers into the end of the pistil is another matter. If you don't have ants crawling on your plant waiting for the flower bud to open then you might have to do it yourself with a Q-tip.
