Hi friends! I have a question about companion planting. I’m repotting a large Christmas cactus into a pretty new pot, and to give it more visual interest, I’d like to underplant with a few different species. What types of plants would you recommend to pot with a Christmas cactus? Other jungle cacti? Hoya? Lipstick plant? Pothos goes with everything… scindapsus? Bonus too if you’ve potted a Christmas cactus with another species and can tell me about your experience! ☺️
Lovely plant. Why are the ends of the leaves turning a redish or brown colour.

0 likes Yep, it’s normal! It’s sun stressing. The plant produces anthocyanins (which make the leaves appear red, pink, or purple) to protect it from the extra light. ☺️

0 likes How long does it take the soil to dry out? With the plant being that far from a window, it may not be getting enough light to use up water before the roots become damaged.
