Zelda Zig Zag Cactus

Zelda is a “zigzag cactus” and she looks great in her Halloween planter! She will easily slip out of the container once the holidays pass -  and with time there are spectacular flowers to come. But by the time the plant is 3 years old or so (and that’s young for a Epiphyllum), it will begin to bloom, usually in the late fall, then sometimes a second time months later. The flowers are borne from tiny areoles (cushiony white growths) at the base of the stem’s teeth.
