Description: Epiphyllum 'Black Light' This "oldie but goodie" was introduced back around 1960 by Edward Stephans, and remains a staple in collections today. The flowers have inner petals that are vivid deep purple with lighter edges, and red and purple outer petals. The large flowers have an open, cup form and the large plants have mostly flat basket growth. With the saturated colors of this fine hybrid, it is aptly named. Of unknown parentage. An easy and rewarding hybrid - great for beginners! This offering is for one well-rooted and established cutting, with new growth showing or beginning to show, in a 3 1/4" pot - similar to what may be seen in the photos. These are not full plants but, rather, smaller, well-rooted cuttings that are just beginning to show signs of new growth, or new growth is already developing. If you don't want to have to wait for a cutting to root, this will save you a few steps and time. The young plant you will receive is healthy and true to name (and may show a few nicks and dings). Cultivation Instructions Included with Purchase! I've been growing and collecting Epiphyllums for over 45 years and enjoy over 700 varieties in my collection. It would be hard to choose a favorite, but it would probably have to be the one that's right in front of me! All photos are of plants in my own collection - unless stated otherwise. Flower photos are for reference only. Not in bloom. NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING - SORRY - I ONLY SHIP TO THE US. I do combine shipping for multiple items - please request a new shipping total before checking out.
