My False Christmas cactus. Moved them all to this corner shelf today so we could see all the blooms about to open. Going to be a nice display this year. 🎄🌵🌸

How do you keep the blooms? All my blooms fell off.

#### Cherrybergher replied on 2024-11-16

Did they drop before they opened?

#### Amira replied on 2024-11-17

Yes

That is strange. I’m guessing they either got too much water or not enough. I find my Christmas cacti stay wet longer when they are flowering so test the soil to see if it is wet with a chopstick poked to the bottom before watering. If I find mine are staying wet a bit longer I will aerate the soil with the chopstick by poking it in and out in a bunch of spots. It’s usually this time a year I need to do this.

I think it doesn’t like misting cause I was doing both.

I love this idea! Post again when it’s all fully bloomed 🌺
