The Monkey Tail Cactus is a beautiful houseplant with long fuzzy spines. Looks amazing hanging in a bright spot and thrives neglected!
This low-growing alien-like compact star is a unique cultivar of the Cryptanthus bromeliad species. Wavy-edged leaves grow from a central rosette at ground level without a visible stem. The plant is also called Earth Star and Fishstar. Occasionally the Cryptanthus may produce cream-coloured flowers.
The Fish Bone Cactus is not your regular cactus. Unlike most cacti that dwell in desert-like environments, this vivid trailing epiphyte (a plant that grows in or on the trunks and limbs of other plants and trees) is native to the tropical evergreen forests of Mexico.
Found only in these forests high above sea level in warm humid environments. The official name for this unusual cactus is Disocactus anguliger, some may still know it as Epiphyllum anguliger but after recent molecular research, the plant was reclassified into the cactus genus and family. It also goes by the common names Fish Bone Cactus, Zig Zag Cactus, and Orchid Cactus. The first two names do a good job of describing the rich green jagged tendrils that burst out of the centre of the plant and hang down towards the ground. But it has been given the name Orchid Cactus because of the stunningly beautiful flower display it can produce.
Often cactus flowers are very impressive, they take a long time to form and when they do they don’t disappoint and this cactus is no different. Producing a large vivid star-looking flower that blooms with bright neon pink on the outside and a pale creamy white in the centre, it is well worth a quick internet search if you haven’t seen them before. But like most cactus flowers this is a short-lived experience with the flowers lasting a day maybe two at best. You will also need to be patient as the Fish Bone Cactus won’t start producing flowers until it reaches at least three years old.
Overall this plant is perfect for those who may not have the environment to house a dessert-style cactus but still want to be part of the club. This very forgiving plant can tolerate lower light conditions and a touch of neglect making it a great choice for beginners or those who often forget to water their plants but still want a touch of green in their homes.

One of our bestsellers: Platycerium bifurcatum, commonly known as Staghorn Fern on a lava rock. The plant can be grown as an epiphyte or lithophyte. The display on the lava rock is very unusual and will make an amazing gift for a plant lover or for yourself ;)
This time paired with our hand-picked, live sphagnum moss! The moss will keep the lava stone moist for longer and grow at your home. You may receive moss separately to set up at home if purchased online to avoid damages during the transport. You can also choose to not add the moss if you prefer.
Pictures represent our actual stock. Every plant is different and unusual!
Epiphyte are plants that grow on another plant and use it as a host to receive nutrients and moisture.
Lithophyte are plants that grow on rocks, cliff faces and edges of stone formations and do not need soil to thrive.
The plant will enjoy bright spots but will be also fine in medium light. Water regularly to keep the moss and lava rock moist.
You can trim stems and roots if grow too long to maintain the bonsai look.
This low-maintenance and air-purifier houseplant can tolerate a very low level of sunlight.
This plant loves high humidity and will thrive in shaded spots.
