darius, try here on their backorder page almost half way down. You have an orchid cactus, but it is not related to orchids....scheesch!

Now just gotta find out more about the night blooming cereus...aka: Queen Of The Night . Supposedly it is NOT a cereus but an Epi, but is it related to the orchid ?
I have mine planted in epi medium and it is thriving.
.....FYI 'Queenie" has FLAT leaves not succulent dimensional stems like the orchid cactus, each bloom lasts only for one night and 1 flower will perfume the whole house....That's how I saw my first bloom, the fragrance woke me up in the middle of the night =)
Round 'n Around We Go........lol
