How to Care for Your Coral Cactus — Complete Guide

Unlike desert cacti, Rhipsalis is a jungle cactus that prefers bright indirect light and slightly more moisture. Water when the top inch of soil is dry — roughly every 1–2 weeks. Use a well-draining aroid or epiphyte mix. Loves humidity and benefits from occasional misting. Feed monthly with a diluted liquid fertilizer during spring and summer. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the delicate stems.
