Rhipsalis baccifera



12th December 2009


An epiphytic cactus with thin trailing stems, Rhipsalis cassutha is the name it arrived with, but I haven't checked it yet. Small white flowers.

It has grown larger, and after a series of harsh winters I think it is reasonable to suggest that it is cold tolerant if dry!
A South American species with a distinct subspecies in Africa, thought to have been introduced by accident (though it is all speculation).
