Epiphyllum guatemalense ‘Monstrose’, often nicknamed the “Curly Locks Cactus” or simply “Curly Epiphyllum,” is a bizarre and beautiful cultivar of a jungle cactus native to the rainforests of Guatemala and parts of Central America. In the wild, the species (Epiphyllum guatemalense) grows as an epiphyte—anchoring itself to trees in humid, shaded environments where it absorbs moisture and nutrients from the air and rain.

Description

The ‘Monstrose’ variety is a cultivated mutation prized for its fantastically twisted and contorted stems. Instead of the flat, strap-like stems typical of most Epiphyllums, this form sports irregular, curled, ribbon-like growth that gives the plant a wild, untamed appearance. It’s a conversation piece in any collection, often grown in hanging baskets where its spiraled stems can cascade downward like abstract green ribbons. While its unique foliage is the star of the show, it may occasionally produce large, white, night-blooming flowers in the right conditions, though flowering is rare in this cultivar.

Care Tips

As a tropical epiphyte, Epiphyllum guatemalense ‘Monstrose’ prefers filtered light—bright but indirect. It will scorch in direct sun, especially during the hottest parts of the day, but too little light will slow growth. Morning sun or dappled shade is ideal.

Use a very well-draining potting mix—an orchid or cactus mix with added perlite or bark chips works well. Water thoroughly when the top few centimeters of soil feel dry, and reduce watering in winter. Avoid letting it sit in soggy soil, as this can cause root rot.

It thrives in warm, humid conditions but is surprisingly tolerant of indoor dryness if not overwatered. Fertilize lightly during spring and summer with a diluted balanced fertilizer. Prune unruly or overly long stems to maintain shape or encourage branching.

With the right care, Epiphyllum guatemalense ‘Monstrose’ is an easygoing, eye-catching plant perfect for tropical-style gardens, shaded patios, or as an indoor hanging feature. Its eccentric growth habit adds texture and a touch of whimsy wherever it grows.

CULTIVATION TIPS

We recommend purchasing 2 or 3 cuttings when planting up a pot as it will ensure the development of a robust and aesthetic plant.

Epiphyllum do best in partial shade in a fertile soil mix. Keep reasonable moist throughout the year, a little less so in winter. They enjoy humidity and so benefit from spraying.

A very nice hoody to wear: a bit dressy in appearance, warm & ample of sizing, hood, pockets & cuffs
Size: XX-Large, Color: Blue Wave
This is a very nice hoodie! Whereas I thought the fabric a bit thin upon arrival, after laundering and wearing for the first time, thought it to be very warm. The hood itself is very ample of size and I have to pull it back or it will hang down over my eyes, blocking my vision. The blue and black design also helps to make it look a bit dressier rather than casual of which a non-print hoody may display. My 2x size is of good fit, not too tight and with ample sized pockets. I also like the sleeve cuffs, as they are solid black and lengthy without being too tight. A good purchase indeed and recommended; would make a great gift for yourself or others.

You get what you pay for
Size: X-Large, Color: Teal Blue
Fair warning this hoodie runs small. I normally wear a medium for T-shirts and hoodies. I ordered an extra large because I wanted this to be oversized. Not only was it not oversized. It was almost too small and definitely would’ve been after a wash or 2. Additionally, this is not as lightweight as advertised so expect to get a medium weight hoodie. Lastly, the design is pretty poor. I couldn’t hardly move my arms in any range of motion without the hoodie riding up. I would’ve marked this as a one star review but I should’ve known better than to expect a quality hoodie for $20. Just know you’re getting what you pay for.

Best of the Best!
Size: Medium, Color: Indigo
I basically live in zipper hoodies. I recently purchased several hoodies as the ones I bought a few years ago finally disintegrated. This one caught my attention as it is a 60/40 cotton poly blend and a french terry weight, which is my favorite. First off, the hoodie is a perfect medium weight, not like a regular sweatshirt. The fabric feels really smooth and doesn't pill. The seams are all sewn well. I cannot comment enough on how high quality this is. I have bought Amazon Basics before and really didn't like the quality or thin fabric, but this Essentials line feels higher quality and I would definitely purchase more of these. The blue is a beautiful color. As for sizing, I am female, 5'4" and about 150 lbs. and I got the medium and it fits perfectly. I usually wear a medium or large in women's clothes. I like the length of the men's version as it hits a little further down on my hips.

Grey hoodie...need I say more?
Size: Medium, Color: Grey Heather Full Zip
Can't beat this as far as value, quality and comfort. You would think a plain grey zip up hoodie would be easy to find at any local department store, but nope. So when I saw this going for an extremely good price, it was a no-brainer. The fit is proper and the material is soft inside and out. Very easy to wash and keep in good shape and great for transitional season changes. All pockets, hood and zipper works as needed and great quality.
