Mistletoe Cactus (Rhipsalis baccifera)

Also known as Coral cactus, Spaghetti cactus

and Rat tail cactus

 

A funky, trailing cactus with long, spaghetti-like stems. Unlike desert cacti, it’s native to rainforests and loves a bit more moisture.

 

Care Guide:

Mistletoe cactus prefers bright, indirect light but will also tolerate some shade. Keep the soil slightly moist, watering when the top inch dries out (less in winter). It enjoys a bit of humidity, so bathrooms or kitchens are great spots. Over time, it creates a wild, cascading look—perfect for hanging baskets.
