Description: Epiphyllum guatemalensis ("curly sue")A really unusual and decorative novelty. This epiphytic cactus from Central America has flattened, strap-like stems with deeply crenate margins. This monstrose form has stems that are twisted and curled in a most peculiar fashion. A night bloomer with three inch white flowers that are followed by large showy pink fruits about the size of ping-pong balls. Easy to grow and can be propagated from cuttings or by seed. The large white flowers are fragrant but only for a few short nights. This species likes filtered sunlight and medium watering. In older plants "corking" of the stems may occur but this is not unusual. This is a slow growing species but once established it picks up the pace a bit. Fertilized monthly after established with an orchid fertilizer. You recieve 3 cutttings, each 5 inches long and ready for rooting. Ships USPSWe can combine shipments
