The Rhipsalis (Rhipsalis spp.), commonly known as the Mistletoe Cactus, is an attractive ornamental cactus valued for its slender, segmented stems and naturally cascading growth. Unlike many desert cacti, Rhipsalis is adapted to humid, shaded environments and is widely used as a decorative indoor and hanging plant.

Rhipsalis performs best in bright indirect light and warm, humid conditions. Its long, delicate stems create an elegant cascading effect, making it especially suitable for hanging baskets, shelves, plant stands, and indoor displays where its trailing form can be fully appreciated.

The plant prefers a loose, porous, well-drained growing medium and moderate watering. It should not be kept continuously waterlogged, but it generally requires more moisture than typical desert cacti. With suitable light, drainage, and occasional trimming, Rhipsalis develops healthy, attractive trailing growth.
