orchidman---

I have 2 Epis--for years now! None of them have thorns at each bump in the "leaves"....
What you have may be a form of Rhipsalis cactus....NOT an expert on these!
This is such a wide variety of class of plants!

Here are my two Epis last November--hanging in my LR. Quite different---NO?

They sure grow long and lanky--and you can do nothing to change that....
They will bloom when they choose to bloom----mostly--they have to achieve a state of
being root bound and also of overall health of growth.

Let them be! Let them get all rootbound! Transplant when they reach this state--and they will perk up
and--maybe--bloom for you the next year...
