Add a unique tropical accent to your home with this live Rhipsalis Oblonga Cactus, rooted in a 3.5-inch nursery pot and ready for your favorite hanging basket or decorative planter. Unlike desert cacti, this beautiful epiphytic species features long, flattened trailing stems that create a graceful cascading display. Its lush green foliage develops into a fountain-like habit, making it a stunning addition to shelves, hanging planters, and bright indoor spaces.
In spring, mature plants may produce delicate white to pale yellow flowers followed by attractive pearl-like translucent berries. Rhipsalis prefers to be slightly root-bound and thrives with minimal maintenance, making it an excellent choice for collectors and beginners alike. Each plant is healthy, well-rooted, and similar in size and quality to those shown in the listing photos.
