Looks pretty dry and like a pet maybe chewed off some leaves. Thanks in advance! ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/OvGfsYNzvPKSvzjmB07-XFKohuEITYZbx-ZONFbCQ1c/GSm-2MWHQqmOb1lCyblizg.webp?size=large) ## 16件のコメント ### Katieさんが2024-07-05にコメントしました Christmas cactus? ### Plant lover!!!さんが2024-07-05にコメントしました It doesn’t seem quite like a Christmas cactus but it definitely could be. Just keep an eye out for it while it’s growing ### Hollyさんが2024-07-05にコメントしました I believe it is a thanksgiving cactus! But why the red on the leaves? ### Julesさんが2024-07-05にコメントしました It’s very dusty too. Have you checked the root situation? #### Hollyさんが2024-07-05に返信しました Not yet - I’m worried about disturbing the plant. What’s the best way to do that? Not so much dusty as covered in pet hair! #### Julesさんが2024-07-05に返信しました Yes, it’s pretty gross… 😔 Plants need to be cleaned too. In order to check the roots you’re gonna have to pull it out, unfortunately. I personally would unpot, wash, and repot with a new medium. #### Hollyさんが2024-07-05に返信しました Ok! I think I’ll wait a bit so that it does experience shock, but I’ll give that a go - thanks! #### Succulent❤️Mamaさんが2024-07-05に返信しました I haven’t had a holiday cactus before but succulents in general handle having their roots messed with quite well. I un pot my smaller succulents every couple months to check their root health, more often if they look like they are struggling. I have never had one act like it noticed, but I have caught lots of issues early doing that. I don’t know if it needs to be repotted or not, I just wanted to encourage you that it shouldn’t hurt it or stress it when the time does come.❤️ #### Hollyさんが2024-07-05に返信しました Thank you! Much appreciated :) ### Rileyさんが2024-07-05にコメントしました It looks like a very sun stressed thanksgiving cactus ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/NdbFnkerz9b0_a-iTYZvvOzRIwR1Zhv6C_ilzSLBRK4/OFy_OWw0T4uXOOYr0H9RmA.webp?size=large) #### Succulent❤️Mamaさんが2024-07-05に返信しました This is so useful! Thanks for posting this! ### Kadesさんが2024-07-05にコメントしました Definitely thanksgiving cactus and apart from the pet fur coat it has it looks pretty good! It has gotten a lot of sun but it’s nothing to worry about. They do enjoy being pretty root bound I will repot my Xmas cactus this coming year (been 3 years) They like lots of bright indirect light and will bloom almost year round if you make sure they have long periods of dark/night hours #### Succulent❤️Mamaさんが2024-07-05に返信しました Great advice! I noticed it had some blooms too! I love when we as a community encourage each other like this.❤️ I don’t own one so I will defer to you, but maybe it is ready to be watered too? #### Kadesさんが2024-07-05に返信しました It does look about ready to be watered. They’re really a very hearty plant though so I wait until they get a bit more wrinkly because I’m a notorious over waterer lol #### Kadesさんが2024-07-05に返信しました And 10000% yes. We are all human and make mistakes!! I have a few (or more) plants that I’ve messed up and everyone here has been so helpful! #### Hollyさんが2024-07-05に返信しました Oh yes it was dry as a desert when I got it 😅 --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
