The Christmas cactus, sometimes also called Easter cactus (Schlumbergera bridgessii), is a beautiful winter flowering apartment tree that gives a touch of color to almost all indoor environments.
This known plant is not only easy to care for, but can be propagated easily and, following simple tricks, made to bloom continuously.
The Christmas cactus can be propagated by cutting a small “Y”-shaped segment from the stem tips. The segment should only be taken from a healthy part of the plant.
Plant the cut segment by inserting about a quarter of its length into a slightly sandy soil. Moisten the soil evenly and place it in a bright area but away from direct sunlight.
To generate the roots for the new plants, cut the shoots from the tips, to the second joint of each plant. The cut part should show signs of growth after a few weeks, after which it can be transferred to another pot, with a mixture of soil, compost and sand.
