Epiphyllum Anguliger Fishbone Cactus’

This pet-friendly cool plant brings a unique blend to your interiors. 

• 🌱 Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect light.

  • Can tolerate some direct morning sun, but avoid harsh afternoon rays, which can burn the stems.

  • Indoors: place near an east- or north-facing window, or a few feet back from a south window with filtered light.

  💧 Watering

  • Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of soil feels dry.

  • During the growing season (spring–summer), keep soil lightly moist but never soggy.

  • Reduce watering in fall and winter when growth slows.

  • Use a pot with good drainage to prevent root rot.

  🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Thrives in 60–80°F (16–27°C).

  • Avoid temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

  • Appreciates moderate to high humidity (40–60%). A humidity tray or occasional misting can help indoors.

  🌸 Fertilizing

  • Feed every 4 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced fertilizer (or one formulated for cacti/orchids).

  • Stop fertilizing in fall and winter.

  🪴 Soil

  • Use a well-draining, airy mix:

    • 1 part cactus/succulent mix

    • 1 part orchid bark or perlite

    • Optional: a bit of compost for organic matter

  ✂️ Pruning & Support

  • Prune lightly after flowering to shape the plant.

  • Stems can become long; provide a hanging basket or trellis if desired.

  🌼 Flowering

  • Blooms typically in late summer–fall, often at night.

  • Flowers last just one night but are spectacular and fragrant.

  • A slight cool period and reduced watering in winter
