Does anyone grow epiphyllums with thier orchids? Any info would be
appreciated as I just ordered a couple of plants and several cuttings. I
want to put everything together with my orchids if possible

I do, Shell, since I received cuttings about 9 months ago. They're in my 8 x
10' intermediate to warm GH with most of my orchids, planted in a fine
bark/vermiculite/sand mix in 4" square plastic pots. I water and fertilize
just as I do the potted orchids.
All the cuttings rooted and have grown phenomenally well, and two have
bloomed. The only problem is that they are taking up so much room, I may have
to choose between them and a few orchids. Despite Rob's Rules, I haven't
credit or energy enough to extend my little GH.

Tom, I am almost 100% sure you can grow your Epiphyllums outside in a
sheltered area. They are very hardy plants. You may get a little colder
than my area & if there are frost warnings just cover with a sheet.
