Mistletoe cactus is a bizarre and wonderful tropical chain cactus, with thin, spiky, pencil-like stems, small yellow-white flowers and white globular fruit. Very much on trend and great for hanging baskets, so pucker up!
Although Rhipsalis is a cactus, don’t think dry, arid landscapes. These are jungle cactus, native to the hot, steamy rainforests of Central and South America. They need warmth and humidity.

Horty Hints
Hot n’ humid! The Mistletoe Cactus likes humidity so pop it in your bathroom to soak up all that steam.
Merry and moist! To keep your Mistletoe Cactus happy, ensure the soil is moist at all times, but be careful not to overwater as this can lead to leaf discoloration.
Bright and beautiful! Ensure your Rhipsalis gets a few hours of sunlight in the early morning or evening to reach its full glorious potential.
Light
Bright filtered or dappled light. A few hours of morning or early evening sunlight a day would not go amiss. Avoid harsh midday and afternoon sun.
