night blooming cereus
 
is night blooming cereus an epiphyllum? i know that this sounds like a stupid question but i have been wanting to know for a while.

I think it depends on what has been sold as "night blooming Cereus" and " Epiphylum". They are actually two completelly different cactus genus!

one is epiphytic: Epiphyllum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

the other terrestrial: Cereus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
