成熟的白色小漿果.

Mistletoe cactus (Rhipsalis baccifera) seed germination in 2 weeks. 絲葦種子2週內會發芽.

Mistletoe cactus (Rhipsalis baccifera) is a rarely seen succulent, it belongs to the Cactus family but it is not prickly.  Because it is native in tropical warm regions so it must be indoor over winter if you live in a cold climate.  It prefers growing in full sun to partial shade location in moist but well drained soil or medium.  Some of this genus are more shade tolerant.  This makes a nice house plant.  It is easier and faster to propagate by cuttings.

絲葦喜溫暖,一般而言它不是那麼常見的仙人掌科植物,由於沒有刺+長速慢,很適合作成吊盆.  若你所在的氣候區較冷,要記得搬進室內過冬.  雖然也能從種子繁殖不過速度和難易度上還是以扦插方式為主.  這屬的植物的光照需求較為耐蔭,全日照到半日照的環境都可以栽種.
