I have this plant and would like an ID. It came in with all my epis and other rhipsalis. I find it very easy to root and it flowers sometimes twice a year. It is in flower now which is the beginning of our winter. It usually flowers around spring. The flowers are quite small and as you see, a white bell . I would like to have a name for it if someone can help..
Thank you. Jean.
It is definately a rhipsalis. One I have, and I should know the name, but, Its been a busy day, and I'm brain dead right now. I'm out of town for a couple weeks, but can definately name it when I get home...if you remind me, but I'm sure someone else will know the name before then.
I think it is Rhipsalis houlletiana http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/97922/ , but I'll wait for somebody more knowledgeable to jump in.

Beautiful plant. Does it have a scent?

Thank you for your replies. It is very nice to have the proper name for a plant. I bought it as a small scraggly cutting and it has filled the basket in just over18 months, I have started a few more from it's trimmings. It doesn't seem to have any perfume .I keep it in with the epis as it doesn't look much like any of the other rhiipsalis I have.
Jean.
