Easter Cactus ‘Sunlet’ (Rhipsalidopsis gaertneri)

Beautiful, deep orange, 2” flowers have hints of white on the petals and make Easter Cactus ‘Sunlet’ very special indeed. Easter Cactus, also called Spring Cactus, bloom between March and May. Each flower lasts for several weeks, opening every morning after sunrise and closing at sundown. The iridescent star-shaped blooms are borne on the ends of the succulent’s stems similar to Christmas Cactus. In their native habitat, rhipsalidopsis grow as epiphytes in the forests of Brazil and other South American countries. Easter Cactus like filtered light but no direct sunlight, well-drained soil and moderate watering and fertilization. Keep the plant cool and moist while it’s in bloom to extend the flowering season. ‘Sunlet’ is a new variety that we are offering this year. This is a budded plant that will bloom this spring.
