It is just as well known as a jungle cactus, and adds a tropical feel to any space, indoors and esteemed for its rarity. This plant has soft and cascading branches well suitable for the hanging baskets where the slendery segmented stem flows gracefully. The Rhipsalis Goebeliana, however, is found in tropical forests, and, unlike most known cacti, it does not require direct sunlight and low humidity. When you purchase a Rhipsalis Goebeliana plant, you get an interesting addition to the interior, which does not require special attention and care from its owner. Due to its rather delicate look and uncomplicated care, it is perfect for first-time plant owners and those who have been in the plant caring business for a while.

This is a unique Rhipsalis that prefers neglect and can go for months without water and it is ideal for people with little time for their plants. It’s a perfect choice for use in the bathroom or in a room that has abundant natural light but not the direct sunlight. It might flower during winter and produce tiny white flowers which enhance the beauty of the plant. Popular for being friendly to pets, the Baker’s Rush also does not pose any threat to cats and dogs, making it an excellent and interesting houseplant.
