Product Description
The Rhipsalis is a hugely popular plant right now. When you buy this Rhipsalis there's a chance the green houseplant drops a few leaves at first; that's simply because it needs a little time to settle into its new home.
Care & tips for the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant - 25 cm
The Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant is an easy one to look after. It is sensitive to too much water, though, so we'd recommend going steady with the watering can. Is the plant growing to one side? Then turn it a little every day without moving it from its spot. That way the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant gets the same amount of light on its leaves all round. In the summer months the Rhipsalis Heteroclada can have some extra plant food for a few extra nutrients.
How much water does the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant - 25 cm need?
The soil of the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant would rather be a little on the dry side than on the wet side. To begin with, we'd recommend watering little and often rather than giving one big drink at a time. That way you avoid a flood of water the plant can't take up. In summer the plant usually needs more water, because it uses more moisture too. A regular misting of the leaves is always appreciated. Has your plant been repotted? Then always use a moisture meter!
How much light does the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant - 25 cm need?
The Rhipsalis Heteroclada is a tough plant and copes with bright and shady spots alike. That makes finding a home for it especially easy. When the Rhipsalis Heteroclada puts out little new growth, that's often a sign it isn't getting enough light.
Is the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant - 25 cm toxic?
Unfortunately the Rhipsalis Heteroclada hanging plant is mildly toxic if swallowed or touched. So wear gloves when you repot it to protect your skin. The sap in the stems can cause skin irritation. Do take care if you have children or pets.
