Rhipsalis Baccifera Heteroclada. Hanging Cactus.
The Rhipsalis Baccifera Heteroclada Cactus has long slender succulent pendent green stems. Very attractive these sprawling stems cascade down over the pot giving a waterfall effect.

Small flowers are around 1cm in diameter and are usually white or whitish in colour. Mistletoe-like berries (hence the name Mistletoe Cactus) are produced when the cactus is mature.

This unique and very trendy cactus is perfect for providing a dramatic accent to your house or office.

These types of cacti are Epiphytic, meaning in habitat they grow in trees or on rocks, getting their nutrients from the air or dead leaves and other debris collected in the cracks or crevasses.

Very easy to keep needing minimal maintenance.
