I have a few other rhipsalis, ( goebeliana, cereuscula, prismatica and an Easter cactus) but they haven't bloomed for me. I have them longer than these two, the pilocarpa and eliptica. They are all hanging in same area (outside in the screened pool enclosure. I keep going out and checking on them every few days, hoping to see buds or flowers. They get their redish color from being in the sun. The cereuscula and prismatica are different. They have round segments and do not get the red color.
The one I'm waiting to bloom is the Rhip. pachyptera. I have it three years. This past year it has really grown. I think I'm going to put it in a hanging pot and put it in the sun too. Maybe that's what it needs.
