Rhipsalis clavata is an easy to grow epiphytic cactus, with long, trailing pale to bright green green stems. It has masses of small white flowers in spring to summer, followed by small yellow or red berries.
Rhipsalis clavata likes to be planted in a well drained organic mix, such as an orchid mix. Water regularly in the warmer months, when the soil is dry to the touch. Do not over-water. Place in a position with filtered light, out of direct sunlight.
