Rare Rhipsalis Lepismium cruciforma 5-6" cuttings

Description: I have been growing this succulent for a long time, and it took a lot of prodding before I was willing to sell cuttings for you! This succulent is a little different even if only because it has a painterly appearance. It dances from red to green and the hues in between. This Rhipsalis has a very small white fuzzy bloom along it's tendrils.It roots easily. My best advise is to get some bone meal and perhaps some rooting powder or gel. The later isn't really important for this plant.What is important is that you water sparingly until roots form (about 2 months)My advice is that you use Cactus soil, or the like. I find the bagged soil too heavy. Add about 40% Perlite a little sand and bone meal. Mix well and dampen the mixture.Wet the tip of the Rhipsalis and dip in the rooting powder or gel (I use powder). Make holes in the soil with a pencil, or the like and put each cutting at least 1" into the holes. Next, pat down each cutting so they are securely held in place. You can spray the 'masterpiece to dampen the top of the soil. NO water until dry. One way to do this is to lift the pot every couple of days. As the pot lightens up, give some water. The growing conditions will dictate the watering schedule.For the first week of two leave in a shady area. You can increase the sun, slowly over the 2 month period.'''WOW'', What a beautiful plant YOU created!
