If you keep it on the dry side, it should root very quickly.
Here in San Diego this cactus vine grows on trees, trellises, fences and get extremely large. It can grow pretty large in a pot, also.

You're welcome. I'm going to post more pics in about a week or so...this is when my dragon fruit cactus most likely will be blooming again! This will be the 7th time it's going to bloom this year.

It usually blooms 5 times a year. This is the first time it's bloomed so many times within a year.

You should get blooms on your plants by spring. It's very easy to bloom. It doesn't need a lot of heat or lots of sun for it to bloom well.

Hi Milky looking back at some old photos, I see you have a cactus from Greece I saw my first Plumerias in Corfu, and I'm growing 8 at the moment. There only about 5" tall at the moment and I've got them on a window sill above a radiator, any tips I'd be very grateful on watering etc. Thank-you Roy.
