Cryptocereus anthonyanus- An epiphytic cactus that has fantastic,serrated leaves that look like some sort of prehistoric, succulent fern! Very easy to grow in hanging baskets where it makes a beautiful, cascading specimen. Grown mainly for it's amazing foliage, it does produce gorgeous scented, flowers in March-April that open for a single night.

In nature, this plant is an Epiphyte, growing in trees.

Prefers bright shade to filtered light with a very porous soil. We grow ours in equal parts peat or coco fiber mix, perlite (and/or pumice) and orchid bark.

A fantastic houseplant!
