Epiphyllum 'Frühlingsgold' is an Epiphyllum hybrid registered with the Epiphyllum Society of America in 1990, hybridized by Kurt Petersen. The parent plants of this hybrid were Discocactus macranthus and Epiphyllum hybrid Reward. Disocactus macranthus is known for producing hybrids with strong, pleasant fragrances. 'Frühlingsgold', as you may expect, has a bright lemony scent that matches it yellow color.
The branches have few, if any spines. The flowers have darker yellow outer petals, fading to almost white in the center. The stamen is white as are the anthers. 'Frühlingsgold' is known for producing many flowers up and down the stems. If all are left to mature, each flower tends to be smaller as they compete for the plant's energy.
