RARE PLANT

You're lucky you found me!

Happy in both light & shade
Low water requirements
Express delivery service

These distinct Epiphyllum Anguliger Cactis - more commonly known as 'Zigzag' or 'Fishbone Cactis' - originate from the Mexican rainforests and are best known for their fascinatingly wavy, wide-spread stems. They're great for beginners due to their low maintenance nature, pet-friendly so safe around any furry friends, and great for sharing a tropical touch at home, in the office & beyond. Sure to spark curiosity and conversation too - there's plenty to love with this variety, and they're a pleasure to have around!

Please note decorative pots are sold separately and your plant may vary naturally to that shown depending on size selected and growth variance. Each plant tends to be different, just like us! This variety is also prone to some minor natural leaf dislodging/breakages when moving environments.

Houseplant Size Guide

Plant height measurement: How we measure the height of our houseplants from pot to top

At Houseplant.co.uk, we want to ensure that you choose the perfect plant for your space. Here's how we measure our plants:

Plant Height:

Measured from the base of the nursery pot to the top of the plant, including the full length of the stem and foliage.

Pot Size:

Refers to the total width across the top of the pot.

Choosing the Right Size

To find the perfect fit, compare the diameter of your plant's grow pot to the opening diameter of your chosen decorative pot. Ensure the decorative pot is at least 1-3cm larger in diameter than the grow pot for easy insertion and removal.

Important Notes

  • Plant sizes are approximate and include the depth of the plant pot and roots, not just the height from the top of the soil.
  • If a specific plant size is not available, we may provide a larger plant at no additional cost to you.
  • All of our plants, unless otherwise stated are supplied in a nursery pot with the exception of air plants or lucky bamboo or otherwise listed in the product description.

    I was really happy with the plant itself—it arrived healthy and made a lovely gift. Unfortunately, the packaging let it down. The directional arrows on the box were incorrect, so it wasn’t positioned properly during transit. When I opened it, the soil had shifted and spilled all over the floor. The plant was also very dry on arrival, but thankfully perked up after a good drink.

    First time buyer - will buy again!

    First time buyer! The photos and associated information on the website was really helpful and accurate. Large variety of plants - was difficult to narrow down my choices. Plants arrived quickly, safe and sound and are healthy, beautiful specimens. Would recommend and will no doubt order more now that I know the quality of what’s on offer. (Also, bought fabric/jute pots, they are a great addition and it’s helpful that required sizes are indicated on the same page)

    I have yet to receive my plants because you use a courier that doesn't do the job he's paid to do. It's winter and my plants have been in a freezing cold van for two days & nights and I'm told they can't be delivered for another two days & nights. By the time my plants arrive they will be in a very poor state.

    Cannot fault Houseplant.co.uk, they kept me informed of when my order was dispatched and tracking details. When the plants arrived 24hrs after my order was placed they were so well packaged that they were in fantastic condition with no damage at all. Would definitely recommend them to my family and friends.

Houseplant & Indoor Plant Care

Fishbone Cactus Care Guide

Caring for your fresh new Fishbone Cactus is a breeze! Simply pop yours in a bright, warm spot and water once the soil fully dries, ideally with lukewarm rain, distilled or filtered water. Repot once roots begin poking out of its drainage holes with well draining succulent soil, and feed once per month over Spring/Summer for a development boost.

Avoid using tap water where possible - especially in Hard Water areas - to ensure the cleanest drinking experience.
