    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Rhipsalis Capilliformis (Narrow form) has thin succulent stems with small white flowers. It is an odd species and looks very much like thin grass. As it hangs it splits up into divisions and makes a very nice display either as a hanging plant or small container. It also looks good as a mounted plant in a terrarium or mounted on a piece of drift wood. Plants are well rooted in 3 inch domed pots. One is shown.
