What other selections do you have on your list? Also, do you grow epis on a post like DF?
Thanks!
I am fairly new to epiphyllums. What got me started was some Dragon Fruit growers have used epiphyllum flower pollen to pollinate Dragon Fruit flowers. Epiphyllums are usually grown in hanging pots and take up much less space than Dragon Fruit.
The problem I found out is epiphyllums tend to flower in the Spring before Dragon Fruit.
After attending two epiphyllum shows, I have gotten interested in growing epis. My epi wish list has about dozen varieties (species), most which are not known for fruit.
Some notes from my "wish list":
Epiphyllum hybrid
'Fern La Borde’ (extra small flower, good tasting fruit)
Epiphyllum hybrid
'Day Break' (Mattslandscaping staff; large fruit of good quality)
Epiphyllum
‘Padre’ fruit tasted like kiwi/pineapple/cinnamon
Selenicereus Validus (chocolate scent flower)
I recently acquired cuttings Selenicereus anthonyanus hybrid ‘The Lost Dutchman’ from an epiphyllum hybridizer Donald Burnett

Don has become interested in growing Dragon Fruit.
