Pseudorhipsalis amazonica
Blue pine panel
A Pseudorhipsalis amazonica mounted inside a blue-painted pine panel. A tonal, understated color palette that lets the plant take center stage. The flat, leaf-like stems trail gracefully over time and it will product insanely bright, magenta flowers in time
Native to the Amazon basin and rainforests of Central America, where it grows high in the canopy as a pendulous epiphyte. Probably the most shade-adapted and moisture-loving of the epiphytic cacti, it has thin strappy stems that cascade out reaching for the sun. It eventually produces brilliant neon purple flowers that attract hummingbirds for miles around, a color that no other cactus can make. Lowkey it's my favorite flower color, full stop.
Most epiphytic cacti are quiet plants. This one shows up in fuchsia and dares you to look away.
