Orchid cactus


Orchid cactus (Srlenphyllumx cooperi syn. epiphyllum crenatum)

I do all the local greenhouses & nurseries each year, only occasionally finding something different that catches my eye. How weird is it that I found this hiding amonst a display of hanging baskets of petunias & impatiens at a little corner variety store?? Of course it had to come home with me...

Healthy looking specimen :)

As it should! Wonderful find, probably found itself the best home it could from the sound of the source. :-) Mine is from a tiny cutting and still not mature enough to flower after 6 years.
