Red Epiphyllum in a tree. (Epiphyllum sp.)

I never knew it was red!. It was eaten badly by snails in my backyard so I used it for this experiment.

I am- there were setbacks Jen. It had fallen out of the tree 2 times..Cats? That broke off the longest stems. So I wedged it much farther back,And pushed a Bromeliad on top as more wedge.
I should have packed moss around it. I thought there was enough soil in the rootball...but heck,if its a red flower try harder-lol. I had forgotten what color it was and thought I was using one the more bland muddy yellows I had.

Thanks Andy...the fall when the ton of leaves drop will be the start of some great compost rooting. I hope.
