Rhipsalis ellipticaRhipsalis elliptica is a Brazilian epiphytic cactus with broad, flattened, elliptic stem segments that arch, overlap and hang as the plant matures. The green segments can show gently scalloped edges and occasional warmer or magenta tinged tones in brighter filtered positions. Its wider stem surface makes changes in firmness, edge colour and surface marks easy to notice, while the broad segments build a heavier layered cascade in the pot.
