perhaps I misspook. Are these the same as epiphyllums? I have seen the same shape foliage, the triangular as well as the flat, with the same bloom shape. Mostly I see red ones.

Now, this is not a typical Epiphyllum. This plant is grown mostly for its edible fruit and is not usually grown as an epiphyte, like from a hanging basket. But I'm sure it's somehow related to the Epiphyllum family. Can't say I know how, though.
