Rhipsalis- 'Grandiflora'

This unique epiphytic cactus, unlike its terrestrial relatives, naturally thrives by clinging to trees, showcasing a distinctive growth habit. Its long, slender, trailing stems create a captivating, waterfall-like effect, especially when displayed in hanging baskets or elevated positions. In spring and summer, it produces large, showy, fragrant white flowers that beautifully contrast its vibrant green, segmented stems, adding a striking visual appeal. Well-suited for indoor environments, it demonstrates remarkable adaptability, even tolerating lower light conditions, making it a popular choice for homes with limited natural light.
