Schlumbergera Red (Christmas Cactus)

Known as the Christmas cactus because it puts on such a wonderful eyecatching floral display over the Christmas period, rightly justifying its name.

Schlumbergera grow naturally in jungle-type woodlands attached to trees. They prefer a semi-shade situation as oppose to a full sun aspect of desert-dwelling cacti. An ideal situation would be well-lit yet out of direct sunlight with a humid atmosphere. Improve humidity by using gravel-filled saucers to place your plants upon and keep this moist.
