Love to grow anything under the sun. Surrounding myself with my pets, plants, and nature. I’m up for seed swaps: Rodolfo.gutierrez8807@yahoo.com

Rhipsalis oblonga Loefgr. Aka rhipsalis oblonga. Repotted and moved to a location with higher humidity as needed and it’s perked up right away. I can’t wait for it to start growing again. #RhipsalisoblongaLoefgr #Rhipsalisoblonga #repot #cactus #Rhipsalis

It sure does @heatherdirtyhands for the longest time I was giving this plant improper care. They take way less water than a Christmas cactus. They love high humidity and light waterings.

Does it flower? Like what's the real difference? Other than the care?

Mine hasn’t flowered yet but they do produce tiny white flowers around the rim of the leaf. They leaves are elongated, they go every which way and it likes to dry up a bit more than a Easter cactus. I mist daily and it’s right next to the humidifier. These are found in Brazil and from videos I’ve watched they’re going extinct. That’s why I’m trying my hardest to help it live it’s best. @heatherdirtyhands
