Re: Genus Epiphyllum: Orchid Cacti

Well, there's plenty of new spring/summer growth on a number of my plants. I do think that the fertilizer is helping, but I do have some younger cuttings that are basically just sitting there. Here are a couple shots.

The first are some of my younger plants, as well as my oldest (my E. Oxypetalum).

The second is a shot of the plants that I have outside right now. They seem to be enjoying the heat and sun, but I need to come up with a solution to protect them from freak thunderstorms/rain showers. I don't want to have to keep lugging them inside whenever there's a chance of rain. Also, in the back of the shot is a cryptocereus anthonyanus.

Re: Genus Epiphyllum: Orchid Cacti

In the last couple days, my collection of Epis has reached 22 potted specimens as well as about 5 other potted succulents.
Aside from multiple cuttings, I also received a large, mature plant. This hybrid's name is Epiphyllum Dracula. It's largest growth is a meter tall, root to tip. I decided to use a tomato cage to keep its growth contained and upright.

If anyone wants any cuttings, let me know.
