Christmas Cactus Blooms Droopy?


Bronze Feedback Medal for All Time! 157 Feedbacks

I was just wondering if anyone has any idea why the blooms on my 2 Christmas cacti have been weedy and droopy for the last two years. The year before they fell off too; the foliage looks fine. Before this, they had a lovely display.

Drooping is usually when the plant isn't getting enough sun. They seem to do best in direct morning sun. Don't over water. The soil should be moist and watering done once a week for optimal flowers.

If you have not changed the soil in the pots they are in I would suggest that you do this one. A lot of times a plant is in the same soil for too long and needs new soil in order to grow and produce flowers.

Try this and see if it helps. A little larger pot is also a good idea because a lot of times plants outgrow the pots they are planted in.

Moist soil not wet, also indirect sun light helps. Try to loosen the soil and use a larger pot!
