Epiphyllum ? (solved by Ron)

[injunjoe]

After looking at what Ron told me was Epiphyllum I gathered all my pots of this and would like to know if this is or not.

I know there a few different types of plants in some of the pots.

Thanks.

Oh on another plant I see what looks to be little blooms starting.
Eby has a picture on her phone of one of these in bloom, I just need to send it to myself. Not sure how yet, I don't mess with momma's phone!

LOL,

You crack me up! LOL No wonder you have a pink elephant lying around !

Yes, those are all unique, very different Epiphyllums. These are very special cactus and have a Common name: The Orchid Cactus

This is why I wanted to share! Now I have a Florida Connection! Wow, talk about holding out on me, yet my 'Spidey Sense' told me otherwise!

I am dying to see the blooms. These make great hanging plants because the weight of the leaves and the size of the blooms!

I am working on a great basket now.
I am making the hanger, what ever happened to macrame?
I just use "Bell Wire" , wire I save from installing door openers.
Such a pack rat.

I will post picture here in a few minutes.

Oh and I have another plant I need help with Ron, keep on the look out for "The plastic flower plant thread".

OMG...not the plastic! LOL

Out here they use the plastic flowers for the Cemetery plots. I think real ones are too messy and are banned (I am only guessing).

This first picture is how I make a hanging basket. Total cost for me $0.00 this I can afford.

I rounded up a group that all looked the same.
I have been hanging onto this rack for a while now, glad it has now been put to good use.

Hard to fit this baby in the frame.

I am much like you, Joe. I see so much use out of stuff that people throw away. And that plant with the zig-zaggy leaves - how cool is THAT?!

Oh you like do you?
Well I will keep that in mind when I pack up your things.

the one on the right looks like a midnight cactus or a night-blooming cactus? and some of the smaller ones look the same

I have a picture here taken last week by Eby on her phone.

This is her Mom's plant, the same as mine!

Great to know what there name is, thanks!
