To care for Selenicereus grandiflorus, provide it with bright, direct sunlight for several hours a day. Maintain moderate temperatures and ensure the plant is kept in a humid environment. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. During its dormancy period, reduce watering significantly.Bodem
