Does anyone know what plant this is? I’m having a hard time figuring out how to take care of it but I haven’t watered it in a long while and it has continued to grow this cactus looking branch!

Is it a fish bone cactus aka ric rac cactus?

#### Sunshine svarte den 2025-07-16

That does look like the closest thing! Thank you! 😊 (i was getting several different answers from the app)

#### Tee Jay svarte den 2025-07-16

Oh good. I don’t actually own one myself so I wasn’t totally sure. Good luck!

Easy to grow. Let soil dry out 100%. Loves light. One of my favorites

#### Sunshine svarte den 2025-07-17

Oh good to know thank you! I will move her closer to the window

Epiphyllum Anguliger is a fave of mine.  
Fishbone, Ric Rac, or Zig Zag Disocactus.

Mine likes cactus soil and a terracotta pot. They are epiphytes; it’s good to give them a little spray occasionally because it can absorb moisture from the air as well as through the roots. I think it’s a fun, cartoonish plant; I especially like it when the sun shines through the leaves ☀️ 😍

Beautiful!! Love the cartoonish description

#### KJ svarte den 2025-07-17

I let the top few inches dry out. The leaves get a bit wrinkly if he is thirsty.

Me too. I have read that they flower at night but I have had him only two months and have not seen a flower
