Plant Essentials
Fertilizer/ feed for the plant:Plant the Christmas Cactus in a humus and nutrient rich but well-draining soil. Feed your plant a high potassium fertilizer eevry two-weeks in the growing season, especially when the buds form. Repotting : Reot your cactus every year after the flowering season in fresh soil for healthier growth Propogation : The christmas plant can be easily propagated through leaf cuttings, or as they are called segment cutting.
Common Problems
1. Why is my Christmas cactus wilted or limp? The wilting or limp plant can be due toeither too much sunlight or too little water. Give you plant bright indirect light and keep the soil moist with ample misting. 2. Why are theleaves turning brown? if the leaves are turning brown and mushy too touch,it is a classic sign of root rot due to overwatering. Let the soil dry out completely and water sparingly. If the plant does not look salvageable, take segmient cutting of healthy green parts and try to propagate. 3. Why is my plant covered in silvery-grey growth? The silvery-grey matter covering your plant is a fungul infection called botrytis blight. Prune away the infected parts and keep it in a dry place with reduced humidity. Use a good insecticide for further cure and prevention.
Style and Decor
Light Requirements :The Christmas catus loves bright indrect light with a few hours of direct sunlight. Locations :The best location is near an East-facing window or areas that get a couple of hours of sun everyday. Styling/decor tip :Christmas catuses look spectacular as the centre piece, put them on a stool or table and appreciate the chic vibe it brings to a space. With its stunning but understated foliage and happy pink blooms when in season, there is nothing that can quiet measure up to it. plant it in a pedestal planter or our glam metallic ones to elevate your space.
