One of the things I look forward to most during the festive season is watching my Christmas cactus bloom. Over the last couple of years, I've realized there's one particular element that can make or break a Christmas cactus display: its soil.
The best soil for a Christmas cactus is one that is well-draining and rich in nutrients, and while there are specific Christmas cactus potting soil mixes available on the market (from Amazon), I find it much more rewarding to make a DIY potting mix.
