Rating for this plant:
Epiphitic jungle cactus from brazil. Can bloom sporadically at anytime of the yr from what I've read but mostly in spring and fall. You do need to water this regularly like a Christmas cactus. Supposed to be slow growing. From what I've also found on it there's room for experimentation with sun and shade, mine gets lot of filtered sun and it's doing great.
