Schlumbergera aspen - Schlumbergera aspen - White Aspen Christmas Cactus - Live Plant - Waterwise

A free-flowering hybrid succulent which has been in cultivation since the early 1800s with Brazilian native parentage. Striking and unusual, the so-called “White Aspen Christmas Cactus” is easy to grow in potplants and hanging baskets, where it will show off its extraordinary snow-white, frilly-edged blooms. Although its serrated carnation-like petals are accented by a red ring, the blooms can be manipulated to be purest ice white with warmer temperatures. When cooler, flowers will blush pink.

Ideally for flowering, the plant should be kept in bright filtered light or bright artificial light. Its leaves are bright to mid green but can turn yellow if they get too much sun. Plant in a quality, well-drained potting mix and water sparingly, allowing soil to dry between waterings. Give a shady spot in summer and bring indoors in winter.

We use Insecticides, Fungicides and Herbicides which are poisonous. Some succulents are naturally poisonous eg. the Desert Rose sap is used in Africa to coat arrow heads which will slow the heart rate of the prey.

Even though many of our succulents are known for their agricultural and medicinal uses, all the plants at the Ezy Care Succulents nursery are propagated for ornamental purposes only.

We will not take any responsibility if you decide to eat or use these plants as medicine in anyway.

No, but we are currently undergoing auditing and infrastructure upgrades to be able to do this. Australia has some of the most strict quarantine laws in world to protect our fragile native wildlife.
