Description: Images one through four are of my stock specimen plants flowering in gardens and greenhouses of Guatemala and California. Images five and six show fresh stem cuttings offered for sale, treated with rooting hormone. Easy to root in moist perlite or pumice. Please note that cuttings are sold individually, so price shown is per single stem. Disocactus quezaltecus is one of the most unusual, elegant, and beautiful of the many day-flowered epiphytic cacti native to southern Mexico and Central America. With its unusual, vivid purple tubular flowers and vigorously branching stems, it is one of the most desirable and striking subjects for a small hanging basket. It is tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but prefers a dry, cool, well-ventilated environment during the winter. This epiphytic cactus makes a fantastic companion plant for cool and intermediate condition orchids. These cuttings are propagates of a plant collected near the type locality in the high elevation, shady volcanic cloud forests below San Martín Chileverde, Depto. Quezaltenango in western Guatemala. With proper care they grow quite rapidly and should flower within a year and become a specimen plant in two. Can probably survive overwintering outside in coastal California if sheltered from the rain. All plants offered are greenhouse grown on benches in the San Francisco Bay Area, California.
