ALSO- almost forgot!
Christmas
cactus is not drought tolerant. Water the
plants thoroughly and let them dry out between watering. (feel beneith dirt with yur finger)
Leaves will wrinkle if the soil is too dry as well as when over watered which can lead to root rot. Water less in the winter. Prune the
plants in the summer. Cuttings can be rooted and
started as new
plants.
They require a rich, well drained soil, bright indirect light and a daytime temperature of 70 degrees, but dont like it much hotter. they also like slightly cooler night temps- avoid direct prolonged sunlight. you can feed it with a balanced houseplant fertilizer between April and October.
