Ric Rac Orchid Cactus (Epiphyllum anguliger)

$16.95
SKU: S7522-2

An Orchid Cactus with many virtues: unique foliage, free-blooming and evening fragrance. The leaves, comprised of a series of deeply cut lobes, create a saw-tooth effect giving it the common name Ric Rac Cactus. Flowers arrive effortlessly from late summer through fall, and best of all, it's one species that doesn't need a winter chill to flower. The pure white 3½” blooms, backed by orange-bronze sepals and petals, open over many weeks. This easy-to-grow, fragrant plant makes an excellent subject for hanging containers.
