I'm jealous, this is one of my favorite cacti and I can't find it anywhere :( . do you have any suggestions to stop epiphilum rot, one of mine has gone all mushy and some of the leaves have died. :(
Hi Theo :-D Epiphyllums can be prone to rot if they are kept too damp or in a damp place but I have this happen on some of the leaves on mine and I cut them off and sometimes treat them as cuttings :-D its best to keep them more on the drier side and only water the soil when the soil has dried out in the pot, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from the Emerald Isle for a wonderful evening XXXXX
