With its unique appearance and adaptability, Epiphyllum guatemalense var. monstrose 'Curly Sue' is a rewarding plant for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.

Distinctive Features

  • Contorted, Ribbon-like Stems: The most distinctive feature of this cactus is its contorted, ribbon-like stems, which can grow up to 60cm (24in) long. These stems are typically a vibrant green and have a smooth texture. Their contorted growth habit gives this cactus a unique, sculptural quality.
  • Large, Fragrant, White Flowers: In spring and summer, Epiphyllum guatemalense var. monstrose 'Curly Sue' produces large, fragrant, white flowers that can reach up to 15cm (6in) in diameter. These blooms are truly spectacular and add a touch of elegance to this unusual cactus.
  • Epiphytic Growth Habit: As an epiphyte, Epiphyllum guatemalense var. monstrose 'Curly Sue' naturally grows on trees in its native habitat. This means it prefers a well-draining potting mix and benefits from good air circulation around its roots.

Care Tips

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is best for Epiphyllum guatemalense var. monstrose 'Curly Sue'. While it can tolerate some shade, it will produce more flowers in brighter conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the stems.
  • Water: Allow the potting mix to dry out slightly between waterings. During the growing season (spring and summer), water moderately, and reduce watering in autumn and winter when the plant is dormant.
  • Humidity: This cactus prefers slightly higher humidity than desert cacti. Misting occasionally or placing the pot on a tray of pebbles and water can help create a more humid environment.
  • Temperature: Epiphyllum guatemalense var. monstrose 'Curly Sue' thrives in warm temperatures between 18-24°C (64-75°F) during the growing season. In winter, it can tolerate cooler temperatures down to 10°C (50°F).
  • Fertiliser: Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser diluted to half strength once a month during the growing season to support healthy growth and flowering.
  • Potting: Use a well-draining epiphytic cactus potting mix. Repot every 2-3 years in spring to replenish nutrients and accommodate its growth.
  • Propagation: This cactus can be easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take cuttings in spring or summer, allow them to callus over for a few days, and then plant them in a well-draining potting mix.

My favorite flower to grow!
Size: 1-Pack, Style: Zinnia Dahlia
I love my zinnia flowers!!! I had nearly 100% of these seeds sprout right up!!! (I plant a lot of seeds, and that's not very common)! I can't wait for these beauties to grow, so far they're looking healthy

Liked so much, I bought TWICE!
Color: 23 - Ice Blue, Size: Twin
These sheets are such a great quality for the price. They feel soft and comfortable right out of the package and make the bed feel so much more cozy. I’ve washed them multiple times and they still feel great with no fading or pilling. The fit is also excellent — the fitted sheet stays securely in place and doesn’t slide off the corners during the night. I was so happy with the comfort and overall quality that I ended up purchasing a second set. Definitely worth the money and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for comfortable, well-fitting sheets at a great price.

Finally we BOTH can sleep comfy!
Color: 08 - Black, Size: Queen
So for years my boyfriend has always liked “jersey sheets” or “tee shirt” sheets or sheets made of flannel. He says he doesn’t like the feeling of cold “silky” feeling sheets as he’s always cold. I’m opposite and am always hot, and anytime we stayed in a nice hotel I looked forward to being able to sleep on cooler, taught, soft sheets for a couple of nights. I was able to deal with our old sheets but the issue we both hated was after awhile any sheet we got would get pilling. We even splurged and got a $60 flannel sheet which did the same thing forcing me to shave off these little annoying fuzz balls that make it feels like there is thousands of crumbs on the sheets. I also would wash our bedding once a week because the Jersey sheets seemed to “grow” as we move around in bed making it so the sheet was not taught and super annoying to lay on. The day I would wash them they would be comfortable but ultimately by the end of the week they would be almost hanging off our mattress. I ordered these sheets on a whim and got them the same day and immediately just threw out the jersey sheet and put this on (I didn’t even wash it, I know it’s gross but I was desperate for a comfy nights sleep and they came around 8pm) when I put them on I realized how soft and comfortable they felt. I also liked how the pillow cases are larger than most pillow cases that I have had in the past. We’ve been using these sheets for about a week and I love how I don’t wake up with my pillow popping out of the case anymore. The sheets have loosed ever so slightly since a week of sleeping but still are really taught and comfortable. They are cooler than flannel or fabric sheets and are initially cold when you first lay on them but I wouldn’t consider them “cooling” but they keep me from feeing extremely hot. They are way better than I ever would have expected for the price. I look forward to laying on them at the end of each day, even my boyfriend laid in bed the day I got them and said “wow I didn’t think I would like sheets like this, these are so soft!” And fell asleep immediately. We ended up ordering a second set in grey and the color is pretty. I still have yet to wash them, I usually use 2 tide pods when washing the bedding but I might get some fabric softener (as I hear it helps with pilling) to prevent the possibility of having that happen to these sheets in the future. I am hoping they hold up well after the wash and longer use. If they start to pill after wash, I will come back and update my review. Until then, I would highly recommend these sheets for the quality and the price point that they are offered at. Honestly, at this point even if they pill months from now I probably wouldn’t even be upset as long as they stay the same price I would just buy another set as they are just that comfortable and soft. UPDATE: So it has been about 3 months since I have purchase and used these sheets. They are still as soft as the day I first put them on. I’ve been washing them bi-weekly along with my comforter and pillowcases. I wash them with warm water using a combination of tide pods and added Downy fabric softener. They say to hang dry them in the description but I have been putting them in the dryer on medium and have been taking them out after around 20-25 minutes, they seem to dry extremely quickly. They have yet to have absolutely any pilling and also have not shrunk or stretched. Also I have a cat that is very active and also sleeps with me who enjoys kneading on my bed and I haven’t even noticed any signs of wear what so ever to the eye or to the feel. I highly recommend these sheets. I still have yet to even open the second set I purchased!
