Epicactus-Is it also called Waterlily Cactus?
Comments (4)Hi, its called a epiphyllum( ("upon the leaf" in Greek)or orchid cactus both names are used I can't really give you a hybrid name with out a pic of the plant and flower, then it would be only a good guess. is it a day bloomer or night bloomer ? lots of the epies blooms last for a few days and some last a bit longer. this plant can be grown indoors in zone 5 with ease and put ont in late spring when it starts to warm up.

Comments (9)I have lived up here 12 years and have never seen mistletoe. There is dwarf mistletoe on conifers, but no leafy mistletoe on broadleafs. WA state actually restricts sales of mistletoe for xmas decorations to prevent its introduction. Only irradiated mistletoe in plastic bags allowed! no fresh stuff. A big change from California, where oaks sprout mistletoe like big leafy branches, and people harvest mistletoe with shotguns. I personally haven't actually seen the dwarf mistletoe on any conifers up here but I know it's supposed to be here. There is a rare butterfly in the Olympics and Cascades that feeds on dwarf mistletoe growing in old-growth conifers. I've never seen it, either....See MoreMisletoe-How To....
