If you're wondering what to do with your Christmas cactus in February, the answer is less dramatic than you might think – but far more important than many realise.
By now, the festive display has finished, and the last blooms have faded. It’s easy to assume your Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera) can simply be left alone until spring. In reality, February is a pivotal transition month. The way you care for your plant now determines how well it recovers from flowering, how strong its spring growth will be, and ultimately how abundant next winter’s blooms will be.
