• Sunlight: Rhipsalis ewaldiana prefers bright, indirect light. Protect it from intense, direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day.
•  Rhipsalis naturally grow in the upper canopy of rain forests and are best grown in filtered light with good air flow.
• in well drained soil and little water.
• These trailing cacti are excellent for hanging baskets or pots and are ideal for courtyards or balconies.

Special Features: Rhipsalis ewaldiana is valued for its trailing and cascading growth habit, making it an excellent choice for hanging baskets.
