Aporophyllum Hybrid

this peculiar jewel of botany initially received ideas from a multitude of specimens to achieve the charm and splendor with which it currently shows itself! It is characterized by long thorny and slender stems, falling into wonderful waterfalls, perfect for adorning hanging vases or shelves in your rooms. The light and bright green of the stems, sometimes tending to reddish when the plant is abundantly exposed to sunlight, pleasantly contrasts with the thick and thin yellowish thorns it is covered with. The slender, tapered and often slightly wavy shape of the mature stems contributes to giving the cactaceae the name, with which it is more commonly known, of "rat's tail". That's not all, in fact another strong point of Epiphyllum is undoubtedly the showy and lively inflorescence that blooms in spring between the long waterfalls: its flowers range on shades of pink and red, making themselves absolutely unmistakable for the multiplicity of curved petals. towards the outside and due to their large size, which almost tend to hide most of the stems. The final effect is decidedly scenographic: the perfect mix between the wild and bushy appearance of the waterfalls and the elegance and refinement of the large flowers will make Aporophyllum impossible to miss!
