Hello All
Much to my surprise I found my Rhipsalis (variety unknown) in flower this morning. There are half a dozen buds around the other side.
It was rooted from a tiny cutting a couple of years ago, and has spent this winter indoors rather than in the cool greenhouse.
best regards ... Stef

Re: Rhipsalis in flower
Hi Stef,
Looks like Rhipsalis pilocarpa to me, but I'm note sure there has not been a name change, years ago it was something like Ethorhipsalis?? Mine too has flowered, some times has the odd fruit/Berry on it.
Here's a pic..
Best of luck with it, it's quite an easy plant this.

Re: Rhipsalis in flower
Noticed a couple of white stars hanging down in the front porch the other day.
To be honest I thought it was a little early for R pilocarpa, but maybe the sunshine of the last two days has brought them out.
