Rhipsalis baccifera subs. horrida?

Post by Mrs.Green »

Not the best pic but the pot is about 15 cm. in diameter . The stems are much thicker than anything else Rhipsalis I have. It’s labeled R.baccifera but I think its R.baccifera subs.horrida?

Yes, it's permanent juvenile form named v. horrida. Interesting to see what was forest cacti ancestors look like. :)
