Can Epiphyllum be grafted onto a cactus? Can it be grown indoors?

1. Is it possible to graft cactus?

Epiphyllum can be grafted onto cactus, because Epiphyllum and cactus belong to the same family of plants. After grafting, the plant can take advantage of the well-developed root system of the cactus to make the plant grow faster and better. When grafting, you should choose strong branches and the temperature should be controlled well. Grafting can be carried out at about 20 degrees Celsius. The time for grafting should be in spring, early summer and autumn, when the temperature is suitable and the light is sufficient, the survival rate of grafting will be higher.

2. Can it be kept indoors?

Epiphyllum can be grown indoors. Because it is highly ornamental, placing it indoors can have a good decorative effect. Moreover, there is no strong direct light indoors, and the temperature is relatively suitable for the growth of Epiphyllum. However, when growing Epiphyllum indoors, you should open windows more often for ventilation, and spray it frequently with a small spray bottle, because it likes to grow in a humid environment.

3. Precautions for indoor breeding

After growing for a period of time, the Epiphyllum will grow old branches, which should be properly pruned at this time, otherwise it will consume more nutrients in the soil. However, try not to grow it in the room where you sleep, because it will have a fragrance and the plant will release carbon dioxide at night. Therefore, it is a good idea to grow it in the living room. Growing it indoors makes it convenient for viewing and can make the house appear more cozy.
