Alas, I lost my Epi. Sniff. But, I have Den Burana and while it skipped blooming last year, I have high hopes this time around! Thanks for the treat!

Epiphyllum oxypetalum cuttings are easy to find if you know whom to ask. Same with Disocactus Deutsche Kaiserin if that didn't make it.

Yes. It did. Potted up. Others on counter waiting for me to make tags.

My epis were huge. Too big for the house.

It's OK to prune house plants. Epi oxypetalum blooms best on 2 and 3 year old growths, so in this case it's better to prune house plants.

I have boucou rooted cuttings now, and I will have to thin out some more over the winter! my plant is over 5 feet in length! I am training it to climb over the last pole on the rafters, I want it about 10 feet longer....

I will put an adv in classified one of these days, postage plus a little bit! I need to make way for more stuff, lol...

Not everybody likes the strong fragrance of this flower. How do you like it? Oxy = sour petalum = well, you know.

ok, I put in a classified for those EPI's, I would love to send a bunch out! they make great background plants, and those flowers are worth having a Champaign party to show them off!
