Re: Hardy Disocactus flagelliformis
Sorry did not see this post Mike ( I posted under heading Morning has broken ). Nice plant and I am surprised you can leave it outside.
Where I live that would not be possible, I leave mine in the unheated back porch, which gets down to about 4c some nights in winter.

I'm trying to persuade my wife one of these would be an improvement on her Petunias. We'll see...

Re: Hardy Disocactus flagelliformis
Mine went in the cold frame this winter, min temp recorded was -4C, although I think that may be on the high side.
I was quite concerned come March, it was looking a bit sick, but has since perked up, all the stems have turned green again and it's given me a good crop of flowers. It definitely has decent cold tolerance.
