Plant-A-Day 2020 (Day 328) Rhipsalis cassutha

Leon brought home a cutting of this plant about three years ago. I potted it up and pretty much forgot about it. Apparently thriving on neglect, that cutting grew quickly into a blooming-sized plant.

The flowers are really pretty, too, and it can get whitish berries, too, but I don’t think mine set any fruit the year if bloomed.

My future plans for this trailing plant are to repot it into a bigger terra cotta pot next spring. It seems to grow pretty well on the fence along the patio, so I’ll put it up on the fence again in the spring and see if it rewards me with flowers in 2021.
