When a plant becomes cristate or monstrose, it can be really challenging to tell what the original plant was, unless the grower can share how it developed, so I just have to trust the grower that this is a monstrose version of Selenicereus grandiflorus, which is a type of jungle cactus native to Mexico.
It's the highlight today at #191 of "365 Days of Plants".
In this video I'll discuss where it is originally native to, where I'm growing it in my home, and basics like light, watering and fertilizing.
You can check out more of these videos here and on my IGTV @homesteadbrooklyn.
