It is a red stemmed epiphytic cactus often called Rhipsalis Red Coral, and it will offer the garden an intense touch of red color both indoors and, if placed in an appropriate pot, also outdoors. This is a tropical rainforest species, found in areas with sun penetration through the upper tree canopy. Different from many other cacti, Rhipsalis Red Coral needs only filtered light, so it grows best in homes and partially shaded gardens. The plants form a long term with branches that they use to trail down and form beautiful cascades; this variety easily blushes red under correct lighting and temperature conditions, ideal for hanging baskets or rail planters.

The care of Rhipsalis Red Coral is easy. It does not need much watering and you only need to water the plant once the soil feels dry. Grow it in a free-draining medium, since the roots may rot easily, and use high humidity to match the conditions in the forest. It is also one of the best choices for individuals who want to beautify their home with an attractive but simple succulent plant.
