Here's one of my outdoor-hardy plants. This one is particularly hardy; I rescued it as a broken cutting I found when taking a trailer of greenwaste to the local tip.
I'm guessing it's Rhipsalis (perhaps something from the now obsolete Rhisalidopsis), and Innes & Glass seem to have it as R. x graeseri.
Any clues?

Ahh, of course... I'd forgotten how many plants fit in under Hatiora.
We copped a bit of the rain down here, but it was short and sharp. Thankfully, no hail.
