Name: Lepismium Cruciforme

AKA: Rhipsalis lepismium cruciforme

Why we love it: This cactus earns its name from its long, elegant stems that gently droop, mimicking the swirling, graceful movement of a hurricane’s winds. In ideal conditions, this cactus has an olive green tone. Under several different conditions, you will see this plant flushing a magenta colour. Give it more heat or cold, less water, or fewer nutrients, and you will start to see the colour appear.

Light: Moderate to bright indirect light.

Water: Allow the soil to dry between waterings. Water sparingly in the winter. This is an epiphytic jungle (forest) cacti and requires very well-draining soil.

Pet Friendly? Yes, this plant is non-toxic!
