Orchid Cactus - Epiphyllum hybrid - 2L / 17cm / Medium

Shipping Notice: These are very fragile and segments may be likely to snap off in transit. Let the wound dry for a week or two then place the segment back into the soil and secure it to stay still, the segment will grow roots and begin growing again.

Shape/Form Notice: The way these are propagated from cuttings means they are 'rough around the edges' and due to how they grow (initially upright, gradually becoming pendulous) means the lower sections WILL have to be pruned back to fit into the packaging.

Ideal for Beginner plant keepers or beyond.

Moisture & Soil Requirements: This plant stores water in leaves and stems so prefers light waterings, evenly moist soil with good drainage in warm seasons - never soggy soil and does not like to dry out completely for long periods.

Temperature, Humidity & Ambient requirements: Prefers warm environments inside and adaptable for nearly any situation, tolerates a range of humidity levels.
