RHIPSALIS

Rhipsalis

Rhipsalis is actually a cactus that hangs down in long messy tendrils or grows upwards in a bushy form. Dark green at the top, a bit wispy at the ends, fabulous for exciting peepholes and tabletop meadows.

Planting & Care 

Sunlight: The plant likes to hang in a light spot, and can even tolerate full sun, but will also cope with less light. 

Soil: Well-draining, rich and slightly acidic soil mixture

Watering: Water once the surface of the soil is dry during the growing season. Maintain lightly moist soil. Reduce watering in winter.

Temperature: 60-80°F (16-27°C). Not frost resistant.

Fertilizer: Fertilize with some low-grade fertilizer once a month 

Pruning: Prune to maintain size and remove dead foliage
