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...

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.
