Disocactus ‘Bits n Pieces’ NEW
Disocactus ‘Bits n Pieces’ is a must have for all the rhipsalis lovers out there. It gets its name for its unique look as it grows long, thick foliage with little leaflets along both sides. In late spring to early summer they produce vibrant pink tubular flowers.
☀️This plant requires bright indirect light, avoid any harsh light or positioning this plant too close to a window as scorching or leaf burn can occur.
💧Keep reasonable moist throughout the year, a little less so in winter. They also appreciate their foliage being sprayed.
〰️These plants don’t require higher levels of humidity, standard ambient is perfectly fine.
🌡️Like most plants, these guys prefer temperatures between 18°C-30°C which is similar to their tropical native habitat.
🍴It’s best to feed regularly during the warmer months and reduce frequency in winter. Alternatively, use a controlled release fertiliser at the beginning of spring and autumn.
✂️ Regular pruning may be necessary to maintain its shape and promote healthy growth.
🪴 Rhipsalis prefer a well-draining potting mix. Using a mix of orchid bark, sphagnum moss, and perlite works well. This plant is an epiphyte so can also be grown on a mount or in trees.
(You will receive a bare rooted plant, similar to the ones seen in the images. Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape.)
