Mistletoe Cactus
Rhipsalis Cashero Ampel
The Mistletoe Cactus is light, slim and trailing, a rare thing among cacti. Though you won't find cactus spines along with its fronds if you squint, you can see tiny bumps.
It’s epiphytic, in its natural habitat it grows attached to branches or trunks of trees. As a houseplant, it’s great in a hanging pot.
Growing pot size: 15cm
Overall plant height including growing pot: 15-20cm
Key Benefits of the Mistletoe Cactus

Mistletoe Cactus Plant Care Tips
- Mistletoe Cactus are succulents, so should be watered very sparingly in winter, but like a drink every 7-10 days in spring and summer.
- Place them in an area with bright filtered light and avoid afternoon direct light. Some morning sun is ideal.
- Avoid temperatures under 10ºC and, if you keep the plant outside, bring it back inside during the colder months, especially if you live in a frost-prone area.
- Feed it with a balanced diluted fertiliser every 2 weeks during the growing season.
- It’s a good idea to repot it yearly to keep the soil fresh and good drainage, use a typical organic cactus potting mix.
