Rhipsalis Baccifera

Rhipsalis baccifera – Mistletoe Cactus

Rare Trailing Epiphytic Cactus | Soft Cascading Growth | Tropical Indoor Favourite

Rhipsalis baccifera, commonly known as the Mistletoe Cactus, is a rare and elegant epiphytic species native to tropical rainforests. Unlike traditional desert cacti, it thrives in humidity and indirect light, producing long, slender stems that cascade beautifully to create a soft, flowing display.

Its fine, cylindrical green stems grow in a graceful trailing habit, making it perfect for hanging baskets, shelves, or elevated planters. In ideal conditions, it rewards growers with delicate white flowers followed by translucent, mistletoe-like berries—adding seasonal charm and visual interest.
