WELCOME

An Epicactus is an epiphytic (tree-dwelling) cactus, native to the tropical rain forests of Central and South America. They are tree-climbing plants and send out roots to secure themselves by their roots to their host tree, through long strappy growth called 'cladodes'. Most original epiphyllum species were cream or white in colour. Cross pollination by growers over the last 200 years has produced the many thousands of the wonderful, colourful varieties we see today.

Tropical Treasure is a Bendigo-based grower of Australian and International epiphyllum and aporophyllum hybrids. We have approximately 400 hybrid varieties and can provide you with fresh unrooted cuttings, rooted cuttings and small plants. The vast majority of our hybrids are varieties registered with the ESA (Epiphyllum Society of America - the worlwide body responsible for registration) Unrooted cuttings are at least 25cm in length (10 inches) Rooted cuttings are sent with a root ball in potting mix Small Plants are sent in the pots Whilst we have less than 100 epicactus hybrids advertised on our site, we have many hundreds more that we are just waiting to flower so we can promote and make them available to you. Be assured that we will only sell plant material that we know is correct.

Our product selection includes plants from some of Australian best known hybridisers including the LIBERTY collection by Joyce Carr, the ULANA collection by Tony Hanson and the ROSSMORE collection by Des Ellery. We also have some of the fabulous hybrids from Steve Pincott and many others.

I would like to think that all my cuttings are perfect, but that is beyond the realms of reality!
