Description

Meet the Lepismium, a quirky hanging cactus that adds a unique touch to your space. With its trailing stems and distinctive look, this plant is sure to catch the eye.

Origin

The Lepismium originates from the rainforests of South America. Unlike many other cacti, this epiphytic species thrives in humid environments, growing on tree branches and rocks rather than in deserts.

Care

Light

The Lepismium enjoys bright, indirect light. A spot near an east- or west-facing window is perfect.

Water

Water regularly, but let the soil dry slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

Humidity

Unlike typical cacti, the Lepismium loves higher humidity. An occasional misting or placing it in a humid space like a bathroom works wonders.

With its elegant trailing growth and easy care, the Lepismium is a must-have for any plant lover!
