Description:

It is an epiphytic plant, which means that it grows by clinging to other plants, from which, however, it receives only physical support. Green leaves grow on long stems, positioned in a zig-zag, looking similar to a fishbone. Mature specimens sometimes produce giant white, chrysanthemum-like nocturnal flowers, hence its name. The inflorescences have golden filaments, which is why in the areas of its origin it is often called "Golden Heart".

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 10 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce watering to once every two months in autumn, and to suspend it completely in winter.

The perfect soil is a highly draining and porous one, for example a mixture of peat and pumice so that it does not stagnate the water.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
