Default Epiphyllums

Some people call these cacti orchid cacti because of their showy flowers. They need a winter rest at 10°C and can be grown together with orchids in an intermediate to warm house, as some of their parents are epiphytes as well.
For #1 - #3 I have no name, #4 is Daisy Dean, #5 is Convent Garden, #6 is King Midas.

Those are all gorgeous!! Good variety of colours too. By winter rest, you mean just a drop in temps, or no water at all?

This season gave me the opportunity to identify my epis better. #2 is Novena. #5 is Jolly Rogers (not Convent Garden).

All very nice!

My pick is #3.
I love light yellow color.

Only if I could give them 10C in the winter, I would totally buy a bunch of these. oh, well...

Thanks for sharing!
