Rhipsalis elliptica
Rhipsalis elliptica
These stunning epiphatic cacti make fantastic statement plants and easy to care for.
Plant Care
Light: Bright indirect light. Too much direct sun, and you risk scorching the leaves. Can handle the morning sun (think East facing window), but the afternoon sun may be too much for this beauty.
Watering: Water when the soil is almost fully dry, and don't allow it to sit in water.
Temperature: 15-28C is ideal.
Potting: These plants like a chunky mix, similar to their natural habitat. Our Super Chonk is a great choice for this species. Or we sometimes like to mix our 1 part airy ariod to 1 part super chonk in order to minimise the frequency of watering needed.
Hot tips: This beauty flowers!
Pet Friendly: YES
