☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Rhipsalis Paradoxa Minor thrives in medium light conditions. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight, as direct sunlight can cause the delicate stems to burn. A spot near a window with a sheer curtain would be ideal to filter the light.
? Water
??▫️ (Medium)
This plant likes consistent moisture but is not too demanding. Water it when the top inch of the soil feels dry. Be careful not to overwater, as it does not like to sit in soggy soil. During winter, reduce watering but do not let it dry out completely.
?️ Temperature
?️?️▫️ (Average)
Rhipsalis Paradoxa Minor enjoys average room temperatures between 18-24°C. It can tolerate a slight dip in temperature during the night but keep it away from draughty areas and sudden temperature changes.
? Humidity
??? (High)
Being a jungle cactus, it loves high humidity. Regular misting, a humidity tray, or placing it in naturally humid rooms like kitchens or bathrooms can help meet its humidity needs.
? Repotting
Repot your Rhipsalis every 2-3 years or when it has outgrown its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally formulated for cacti and succulents, to prevent root rot and provide adequate drainage.
? Pet Friendliness
This plant is pet-friendly! No need to worry about your furry friends around this non-toxic plant.
? Recommended locations at home
Place your Rhipsalis in a spot with bright, indirect light like near east or west-facing windows. Bathrooms or kitchens can be great if they have enough light, due to their higher humidity levels.
? Air Purifying
While not specifically known for air-purifying abilities, like many houseplants, the Rhipsalis can contribute to improving indoor air quality by increasing humidity and producing oxygen.
✨ Other Plant Features
The chain-like, cascading stems of the Rhipsalis Paradoxa Minor make it a stunning choice for hanging baskets or high shelves where its trails can drape beautifully. Although it rarely flowers indoors, its lush greenery adds a touch of the tropics to any space.
