Lepismium Houlletianum is a wonderfully unusual epiphytic cactus from the rainforests of South America, producing long, flattened, leaf-like stems that cascade beautifully from shelves or hanging planters. Unlike its desert cousins, this forest cactus thrives in softer, more humid conditions, rewarding attentive growers with delicate white to cream flowers along its stems. A distinctive and elegant trailing plant that brings a lush, architectural quality to any indoor space.

Care Guide:

Light: Bright, indirect light; avoid harsh direct sun which can scorch the stems
Water: Water moderately, allowing the top layer of soil to dry between waterings; reduce in winter
Humidity: Moderate to high (50-70%); mist regularly or place near a humidifier
Temperature: 15-25°C; keep away from cold draughts and frost
Soil: Well-draining mix with added orchid bark or perlite to mimic its epiphytic habitat
Feeding: Monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser
