The Fishbone Cactus (Epiphyllum anguliger), also known as the Rare Ric-Rac Cactus, is a distinctive and fascinating plant recognized for its zigzag, serrated stems that resemble a fishbone. This cactus in a 2-inch pot is perfect for succulent collectors and those looking to add an intriguing architectural element to their plant collection.

Native to the rainforests of Mexico, the Fishbone Cactus thrives in bright, indirect light and benefits from higher humidity, making it an excellent choice for bathrooms or humid indoor spaces. It prefers a well-draining cactus mix and requires water when the soil is dry to the touch, particularly during the growing season. Over time, this cactus will grow long, trailing stems, making it ideal for hanging baskets or elevated planters.

With the right care, the Fishbone Cactus may reward you with fragrant, night-blooming flowers, although these are rare in indoor environments. Its unique look and easy-care nature make it a conversation starter in any home or plant collection.
