Epi cutting rooting- at the top!

Post by Shane »

I have two Epiphyllum cuttings I was letting dry before planting. They're both rooting now from the tops. I'm not sure what to do. Ignore the roots and plant then bottoms down, plant them upside down, plant them flat? I'm not sure why they decided to do this

Fishhook cacti are like cats, they only like to be petted in one direction

I would call roots on a top ‘aerial roots’ and plant cuttings normal way ( bottom down)
