White Easter Cactus ‘Sirius’ p.p. (Rhipsalidopsis hybrid)
Exceptional flowering houseplants, Easter cactus have been used for generations to brighten the early spring window. ‘Sirius’, the only all-white cultivar with its distinctive star-shaped flowers, blooms between April and June with the flowering cycle lasting 2-4 weeks. In their native habitat, Rhipsalidopsis grow as epiphytes in the forests of Brazil and other South American countries, often in close proximity to schlumbergeras. They have similar cultural requirements: well-drained soil, moderate watering and filtered light but no harsh direct noonday sun. Keep the plant cool and moist when it's flowering to extend the flowering season.
Hardy to Zone 10 and higher for outdoors.
Partial sun to shade, grows to 8-12" in container, minimum temperature indoors 40°, blooms in spring.
