Hi! I was given a Christmas Cactus a few month ago and recently grew it to be big enough to get a new pot! It’s been growing but now I have this other leafy green plant in the pot and I can’t tell if it’s a weed or something else altogether. Any ideas?

    A piece of another plant could’ve fallen into it. Does it look like one of your other plants? If not, probably a weed. If you don’t want it in there you can rip the whole thing out (including the root system) and either toss it or repot it.

    The closest I could come is that it might be a Blackfoot or not. This is a weed. Your Christmas cactus is actually a Thanksgiving cactus but they're closely related like kissing cousins.
