A Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera) is a long-living, low-maintenance houseplant that can thrive for decades—even up to 75+ years—with proper care. Here’s a detailed guide to keeping your Christmas cactus healthy and vibrant:

Watering Tips
• Consistency is key: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
• Humidity: These plants thrive in higher humidity, so mist them occasionally or place a tray of water nearby to increase ambient moisture.
• Avoid overwatering: Soggy soil can lead to root rot. Make sure your pot has drainage holes and empty excess water from the saucer.

Light and Placement
• Bright, indirect light: Place your Christmas cactus near a window with filtered sunlight, as direct sunlight can scorch its leaves.
• Seasonal adjustment: During its flowering period (winter), avoid moving the plant too often, as changes in light exposure can cause bud drop.

Pruning
• Timing: Prune your Christmas cactus in late spring or early summer after blooming has ended.
• Method: Use clean, sharp scissors to remove leggy or overgrown segments at the joints. Pruning encourages bushier growth and healthier blooms.
• Propagate: You can root the pruned segments in moist soil to grow new plants.

Fertilizing
• Frequency: Fertilize monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted, balanced fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20).
• Pause in winter: Stop fertilizing in the fall to encourage blooming.

Repotting
• Frequency: Repot every 2–3 years in spring using a well-draining potting mix designed for cacti or succulents.
• Size: Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one, as Christmas cacti prefer to be somewhat root-bound.

How to Help It Live 75+ Years
1. Prevent stress: Avoid sudden temperature changes or drafts.
2. Encourage dormancy: Reduce watering and keep it in cooler temperatures (50–60°F) in late fall to trigger blooming.
3. Stay vigilant: Check for pests (like spider mites or mealybugs) and treat infestations promptly.
4. Legacy plant: As it ages, propagate cuttings to pass down to the next generation or ensure a backup plant exists.

With the right care, your Christmas cactus can become a family heirloom, blooming beautifully year after year!
