Rhipsalis Bits n Pieces
Rhipsalis 'Bits n Pieces' is a captivating and unique epiphytic cactus that brings a touch of whimsy and elegance to any space. Native to the rainforests of Brazil, this plant is beloved for its unusual, segmented stems and its ability to create a cascading waterfall of greenery.
Appearance:
Stems: The plant features numerous, slender, and pendulous stems that branch profusely, creating a cascading effect. The stems are segmented into small, irregular sections, giving the plant a whimsical "bits and pieces" appearance. The stems are typically a bright green color but can turn reddish when exposed to bright light.
Size: Rhipsalis 'Bits n Pieces' can grow several feet long, making it ideal for hanging baskets or trailing over shelves.
Flowers: In the spring and summer, small, white or yellowish flowers may bloom at the tips of the stems, followed by tiny, round, white berries. While the flowers are not particularly showy, they add a touch of delicate beauty to the plant.
Growth Habits and Care:
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light or filtered shade.
Soil: Requires a well-draining, airy potting mix designed for epiphytes or orchids. Alternatively, a mix of peat moss and perlite works well.
Watering: Water regularly during the growing season, keeping the soil slightly moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.
Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures between 60-80°F (15-27°C).
Additional Information:
