Grown from seed collected in an Adelaide garden on a plant labeled "Rhipsalis madagascarensis" (there doesn't appear to be any such name in the official lists)

Our plant keys out to R. clavata, a Brazilian species. The fruits are brownish-yellow.

 Mr. F. Süpplie advises (September 07, 2002) that the correct name for the illustrated plant is Rhipsalis floccosa
