What is this plant exactly and what do I do with it? #Hap...
Hi, took a shoot of this plant from my Mom. Herβs appeared to be dying so I wanted to try and save some of it. Greg identified it as Dragonfruit Cactus? Iβve tried different light and when I found the right combo it started sprouting these pups(maybe)? What do I do? #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PropagationStation #PlantID

It looks like an Orchid Cactus (Epiphyllum) to me. Congratulations on all the new growth! π
A friend gave me a long cutting similar to yours a couple months ago and I cut it into several shorter pieces and propagated those. Theyβre going well now!
You might consider doing that to create a bushier plant with more roots so that it can sustain longer growth in the future π±

@MimiGreenthumb Here were my cuttings from the one long piece he gave me. And an earlier progress pic πΈ
@debbiedo Thank you! I will give that a try!
@MimiGreenthumb Just snip them at a diagonal, let the ends callous, and nestle them back into the soil ππ»π±
