Christmas Cactus

[Aquagility]

My Christmas Cactus is bursting into a riot of colour. Should I water it?

[Dragonmist]

Yes, but not too much. The soil should be moist, not soaked. They are a succulent, so mustn't dry out completely. A little bit of house plant food wouldn't be a bad idea either. Don't turn the pot round or the buds will twist towards the light and fall off.

Thank you very much, Dragonmist. Much appreciated.

Oh I love those plants - but one of my dogs ate the last one I had, including half of the plant pot!
