Epiphyllum Orchid Cactus thrives best in bright, indirect sunlight and moderate temperatures (60-85°F), making it ideal for indoor environments. This plant prefers a well-draining, cactus-friendly soil mix and benefits from high humidity, typical of its tropical origins. While it can tolerate brief dry spells, regular watering during the growing season ensures lush growth and blooming. The plant’s adaptability makes it a perfect choice for various indoor settings.
For best results, water the cactus thoroughly but allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid waterlogged conditions, as these may harm the roots. During the growing season (spring and summer), a balanced, diluted fertilizer every 4-6 weeks promotes healthy growth and flowering. Reduce watering and avoid fertilizing in the fall and winter when the plant enters dormancy. Regular light pruning will help maintain its shape, encourage new growth, and prepare it for a new bloom cycle. This ensures a healthy and vibrant plant year-round.
