Holiday Flowering Cactus: Schlumbergera – 4 inch pot

Schlumbergera, commonly known as the Holiday Cactus or Zygocactus, is a popular flowering tropical plant. Despite the name, it isn’t a true desert cactus; it is a forest dweller that grows naturally on trees in the Brazilian rainforest. Because of its origins, it requires less direct sunlight and more frequent watering than its desert-dwelling relatives. It is highly valued for its vibrant, tubular blooms that typically appear during the shorter days of late fall and winter.
