Plant Profile: Epiphyllum oxypetalum

The Queen of the Night is a captivating cactus that blooms at night, showcasing large, fragrant white flowers that wilt by morning. Instead of traditional leaves, it features flattened stems that can be easily propagated. This plant thrives in a well-draining soil mix designed for succulents or cacti and prefers full sun to partial shade. As temperatures drop, it’s best to bring the plant indoors and reduce watering to just once or twice a month during the winter months.
