Details

Spineless leaf cactus with flat, zigzagging stems that will later trail. Easy to care for and suitable for a bright shelf or hanging pot.

Species: Epiphyllum anguliger · Height: 15 cm (including nursery pot) · Pot size: ø6 cm

The fishbone cactus, Epiphyllum anguliger, is a leaf cactus with flat, deeply cut stems that grow in a zigzag pattern, like a fishbone. It has no spines and the stems will trail over time. This plant is 15 cm tall including nursery pot, in a pot of ø6 cm.

In the wild it grows in trees, so it likes bright light but not intense midday sun. It looks lovely on a shelf or later in a hanging pot. Water when the top layer of soil is dry and do not leave water standing in the pot. In winter it prefers to be slightly cooler and drier, which helps trigger flowering in autumn.

Delivery

Shipping a two-metre plant takes more than a box and some tape. That's why we do it differently from an ordinary online shop.

How your plant arrives in one piece

Fresh from the greenhouse
Your plant does not sit in a warehouse for weeks. The grower only takes it out of the greenhouse after you order and prepares it straight away.
Packed securely
In a box made for plants. Plant and soil are secured and a protective sleeve keeps the leaves intact, so nothing shifts on the way.
Protected from heat and frost
Is it very hot or freezing outside? Then we add a cold pack or heat pack to the box, so the weather doesn't affect your plant on the way.
The right carrier for every size
Smaller plants are delivered by PostNL or DHL. The very largest plants travel upright on a pallet with a specialist carrier.
You know exactly when it arrives
As soon as your plant is on its way, you receive track & trace by email, so you can make sure someone is home and, for a large plant, someone to help carry it in.

When will your plant arrive?

4–5working days after you order

Frequently asked questions about Epiphyllum anguliger

The questions we're asked most about this plant. Can't find yours? Our plant experts are happy to help.

Ask your question

How large does a fishbone cactus grow?

This fishbone cactus is 15 cm tall including nursery pot, in a pot of ø6 cm. The stems grow into trailing sections that can reach 50 to 100 cm long after a few years.

Where should you place a fishbone cactus?

In a bright spot without intense midday sun, for example by an east- or west-facing window. Because the stems trail, it looks good on a shelf or in a hanging pot.

How often should you water a fishbone cactus?

Water when the top layer of soil is dry, about once a week in summer. Much less in winter. It is not a desert cactus, so letting it dry out completely is not necessary.

Does a fishbone cactus flower indoors?

Yes, a mature plant can produce large, fragrant flowers in autumn that open at night. A cooler, drier period in winter and sufficient light help with this. A young plant usually only flowers after a few years.

Why are the stems of my fishbone cactus becoming limp?

Limp, wrinkled stems usually mean too little water, while soft and brown stems mean too much. Feel the soil and adjust watering accordingly.
