Three Christmas Cactus Red Bloom- 4" Pot- Zygocactus Plants

Christmas cactus and its relatives don’t live in hot, arid environments such as deserts or plains. In fact, these epiphytic succulents are native to the tropical rainforests of southern Brazil, where they grow on tree branches and soak up the high humidity, dappled sunlight, and warm temperatures Christmas cacti tend to bloom from early winter to mid-winter. Plants should be kept in bright, indirect light. An east-facing window or a bright bathroom is ideal. Too much direct sunlight can bleach the sensitive leaves. Christmas cacti grow well in most potting mixes that are formulated for succulents. The important thing is that your potting soil drains well. Plan to water every 2-3 weeks, but only water when the top one third of soil feels dry to the touch. After 10-15 minutes, discard any excess water in the tray so that the pot doesn’t sit in water.
