Pseudorhipsalis ramulosa 'Red Coral'
red rhipsalis
The slender, flattened foliage of this interesting epiphytic succulent will remain green if it's kept well away from a window, but if it's grown in a bright spot, it turns a rich coral-red. Also, if it's really happy where it is, you may also see small pink or green flushed flowers develop along the outer edges of the leaves, and these are often followed by small berries.
Pseudorhipsalis ramulosa 'Red Coral' is a cracking plant, that's really low maintenance - so perfect for both the novice or the more experienced indoor gardener.

How to care for Pseudorhipsalis ramulosa Red Coral:
Grow red rhipsalis in bright, indirect light, avoiding harsh midday sun that can scorch its thin, flattened stems. Use a well-draining cactus and succulent mix with added grit and choose a pot with good drainage. Water moderately from spring to early autumn, letting the top layer of compost dry between waterings, and keep it much drier in winter.
Maintain warm, humid conditions, misting lightly if indoor air is dry. Feed monthly in the growing season with a diluted, balanced fertiliser. Keep temperatures above 12-15°C (54-59°F) in winter and protect from draughts. Steady warmth and good light help the stems develop their rich red tones, making a bright indoor windowsill or conservatory ideal in the UK.
