Epiphyllum 'Tel Star'

Highlights

Epiphyllum 'Tel Star': A lime green, hanging or climbing cactus with gorgeous fire red and neon pink blooms. The blooms are short lived, but make up for it with their pleasant fragrance. Please note, this cactus prefers more water than many other cacti.

This cactus variety will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures it can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. Cactus need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 70% to 80% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply and wait for the soil to completely dry out before watering again.
