Epiphyllum anguliger - Fishbone Cactus (a.k.a. Ric Rac Cactus) is a striking epiphytic (tree-dwelling) cactus from Mexico with long, trailing stems that somewhat resemble rib cages. This cactus has smooth green skin and extensively branched stems. The primary stems are often woody. Secondary stems are flat and succulent, 20–30 cm long, 3–5 cm wide, and deeply lobed.

The Fishbone Cactus will only produce flowers once it reaches 3 years old. Plus, their bloom time only lasts for a few days. It blooms occasionally in the fall with fragrant, white and cream flowers that open at night.

** All of the plants will be shipped bare root.
