Flowers: Rhipsalis baccifera 'Licorice' blooms with small, white or pale pink flowers that appear along the stems.

Indoor Hanging Baskets: Ideal for hanging baskets in indoor settings, where its trailing stems and dark foliage can be displayed to full effect.

Low Maintenance: Rhipsalis requires minimal care, thriving in indoor environments with just moderate attention.

Drought Tolerance: As a cactus, it has good drought tolerance, needing only occasional watering.
