Good luck!!! Hope she does well in her new home!

Thank you! It’s my first time propagating a Christmas cactus 💚

What a little beauty! My suggestion is to keep your eye on her as that pot looks very big for the teeny roots. I would have started her in something quite small and sized up as she grew. Best of luck! 🌿🌿🌿

Ahhh! That’s all I had. Can I get a smaller one and move her or will that be too much too soon?

#### Bb replied on 2025-11-08

It’s not ideal but I would do it! It’s better in the long run I think. Just be extra careful, I would probably use a spoon to scoop out the root ball gently and not remove any of the substrate around them :)
