This exclusive Brazilian epiphyte, highly prized among air-garden enthusiasts, is a true masterpiece of living nature that differs radically from ordinary desert plants. The plant’s greatest pride, magnet, and unmistakable signature is the shape of its shoots: from the base, \u003cb\u003elong, trailing, distinctly flat shoots form a substantial clump, their edges decorated with a rhythmic, deeply saw-toothed or wavy pattern in rich emerald green\u003c\/b\u003e. In brighter light, the shoot edges develop a beautiful reddish hue. During maturity and flowering, this cactus transforms into a true fairytale—countless delicate, creamy-white and yellowish bell-shaped flowers bloom in every saw-tooth indentation along the shoot edges, visually resembling snowdrops. It is currently a grandly grown, strong, exceptionally dense and substantial \u003cb\u003e35 cm\u003c\/b\u003e cascade specimen in a large, generously sized \u003cb\u003e21 cm\u003c\/b\u003e pot.

Since this is a large, exceptionally mature specimen in a generous 21 cm pot, it is extremely sturdy and will not require repotting for a very long time (jungle cacti like to fill the pot with roots before they begin flowering abundantly).
