If you are wondering how often you should water your Christmas cactus, it's likely that you're new to caring for this festive staple, and haven't quite got its watering routine right yet.
The signs you're getting it wrong? Overwatered Christmas cacti go limp and the leaves might yellow; underwatered Christmas cacti might shrivel and go brown. As a rule, Christmas cacti only need watering every two to three weeks. However, knowing when to water Christmas cactus and when to hold off can vary household to household, and depend on the temperature of your home and where you choose to keep your seasonal cactus.
