I know they are Night Blooming Cereus. I was told by the person I bought them from that those common names were for the same plant. (and the pots have a barcoded label that says "Star of Bethlehem") . Correct me if I'm wrong but those common names are two different plants. There were 4 of these at the nursery. I got 2 for the price of one. What on earth I'm going to do with two is beyond me but right now they are both in my greenhouse.
Question: Will pruning make them bushier? Someone on another forum said theirs took over their house! LOL! Also...I also broke two new growths/leaves in transport. I cut them off so there is still about 10 inches of stem and put them in water. So far so good?
Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
