Rhipsalis Houseplants

Rhipsalis, commonly known as Mistletoe Cactus, is a distinctive houseplant admired for its trailing, succulent stems that can create a cascading effect. This plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions, making it versatile for various indoor environments. Water your Rhipsalis when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot. Its unique, draping stems make it an excellent choice for hanging baskets or elevated planters.

In addition to its intriguing appearance, Rhipsalis is relatively easy to care for, making it ideal for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts. It prefers temperatures between 18°C and 24°C and does well in average to high humidity. Fertilise every two to three months during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertiliser to support healthy growth. With minimal care, Rhipsalis can enhance your indoor space with its unusual, cascading stems, adding a touch of tropical charm and natural beauty to your home or office.
