Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

The 'Delicate Jewels' Epiphyllum is a captivating hybrid known for its pastel pink blooms that emerge during early to late spring (Djilba to Kambarang). As an evergreen succulent, it features flat, leaf-like stems that can reach up to 3 metres in length, though it is easily pruned to maintain a manageable size. This variety thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and is best suited for hanging baskets or pots, making it an excellent choice for both indoor and outdoor settings in Perth's climate.

To ensure optimal growth, plant 'Delicate Jewels' in a loose, coarse, well-draining soil mix. Refresh the soil every 2 to 3 years, as Epiphyllums are fast growers and can deplete soil nutrients quickly. During Perth's warmer months, water regularly to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, allowing excess water to drain away and avoiding letting the plant sit in water. In cooler periods, reduce watering to prevent root rot. Regular feeding with a balanced fertiliser during the growing season will promote healthy growth and abundant flowering. Pruning after the flowering period helps maintain the desired size and encourages new growth.
