Cutting experiment

Post by Gruntfuttock »

As an experiment I took a cutting from one of my epiphyllums about two years ago just to see how easy it would be.

Here it is today, and yes, it was easy.

very beautiful! The leaves look a little like Christmas Cactus. Any relation? I can grow Christmas Cactus...so anything resembling that would be good for me. :D

Yes, they are related. The leaves are much longer.

The flowers have a similarity too except these epi flowers are 4" across
