This one is an Easter cactus actually. I would just give it some time to recover. Draining pot, yes?

I agree with Nina. My Miss Ryan takes after her mother Mrs. Ryan. Very temperamental when moved i to a new pot. Almost shocked someone would have the nerve to replant them.

And as the foster home governess told me about Mrs. Ryan, the woman who looks after the massive plant where i received 3 cuttings from in fall of 2021, “Mrs. Ryan is not pretty. Her arms, legs, tentacles to some, go everywhere and anywhere. She’s cute now but really she’s a Medusa when grown. Just let her have her light, water, and what ever per schedules. She’ll stop pouting eventually.

Hi there,

I can’t really say. Where are you?

I’m no expert. I can tell you that my friend has her enormous Easter Cactus outside all summer but in a part sun part shade area. And myself I have mine in my 2nd floor bedroom (western looking) window.

I do not think they like direct light unless there is a lack of light. Morning, or like my window, late afternoon sun seem to work. That hot noon / afternoon sun is too much and will burn it’s leaves. I’ve done that too.

Again they are temperamental when repotted. Apologizing seems to work for me.

John: Good morning Miss Ryan. How are you today. I know. I apologize. I disturbed you and I promise to not do it again until needed. 🤪🤓😎

I believe it is stress. If you put it in a much larger pot it may have gotten stressed. But if that is not the case than I am agreeing with Nina
