Meet Enzo! A talented rhipsalis from the greater Des Moines metro area. Winner of the Iowa State Fair Whistling and Yodeling Contest, 3 years running. This champion of the high highs and the low lows will make you swoon from the grandstand. If you prefer western yodeling to alpine yodeling, Enzo’s got your number!

We recommend planting this plug in our Epiphyte soil.

**IMPORTANT NOTE:
THIS PLANT SHIPS AS A 1″ FULLY ROOTED STARTER PLANT, AS SHOWN IN THE SECOND PHOTO. It will come wrapped in moss and tucked in a growers pot for safety. The terra cotta pot with the mature plant, shown in the first photo, is not included. If you order multiple plants, we put them together in one pot so they stay moist and insulated. If you think we haven’t sent the full order, please take out the plants from the pot first to count them.
