Last week I moved the flock outside. Rhipsalis got the shadier spots, but Epiphyllum got the part sun/part shade area under my 10' deck, right behind the last cross beam. Some got moved to a cherry tree which is pretty shady. Others are not in baskets and with the rhips.

I have to apologize to the hatoria, Rhipsadilopsis hybrid and all the Schlums, which got dry winters and full sun summers previously.
How should they be exposed to the sun, and how about fertilizing, I water every one to two days, and fertilize with dyna gro weekly. Your thoughts?
Moving them outaside.....
I have plant hangers in all of my oak trees and my epis and dragon fruits love to hang out there all summer. It is so gorgeous when they bloom in the trees.
I haven't been feeding as much as I should lately. I think I will start a regular routine.
Some of my epies lived on a glass table last year in mostly sunny shade ( dappled) and they grew so much I had to cut them back to hang them in the greenhouse for the winter.
