Rhipsalis, commonly known as the Mistletoe Cactus, is a stunning, trailing epiphytic cactus with long, cascading stems that create a lush, flowing appearance. Native to tropical rainforests, this plant thrives in indirect light and high humidity, making it an excellent choice for hanging planters and indoor jungles.

Care Guide:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which may cause sunburn.

Watering: Keep the soil slightly moist, allowing the top layer to dry out between waterings. Water less frequently in winter.

Humidity: Loves moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally or place near a humidifier for best results.

Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18–26°C. Keep away from cold drafts and temperatures below 10°C.

Soil & Feeding: Use a well-draining mix, such as a combination of cactus soil, orchid bark, and perlite. Feed with a diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season.

With its soft, trailing stems and low-maintenance care, Rhipsalis Mistletoe Cactus is perfect for hanging baskets, adding a wild, tropical feel to any space. Its unique, draping growth makes it a beautiful statement piece for homes and offices alike.
