Epiphyllum guatemalense monstrose is a unique trailing epiphyte with stems that curl and spiral as it grows. It produces plentiful white flowers that bloom at night and only last into the early morning. The blooms are easy to miss during the night, but the small pink fruits that follow add a dash of color to its display. This is a tropical cactus that prefers a little extra humidity and will not tolerate dry soil as long as its desert cousins.
Care of Epiphyllum guatemalense monstrose:
Bright, indirect light. Temp. 40 to 95 degrees. Trailing up to several feet. Allow it to get fairly dry between waterings.
Family: Cactaceae
This plant is shipped in a 3 inch pot.
