How to Care for a Christmas Cactus

A few tips for caring for a Christmas Cactus:

1. Water, but don't overwater. Only water when the soil is dry to the touch. Then water until the water starts draining through the holes in the bottom of the pot. Remove the water that accumulates in the dish below the pot, as Christmas cacti do not like to sit in water.

2. Keep the plant in a temperate area, away from drafts or heat sources. ...»

3. Give your plant its beauty sleep! Before the Christmas cactus blooms, it needs 14 hours of darkness per day.

Updates on repurposed birdbath sedum

I repuposed a birdbath this Spring and put three different types of Sedum in it. A few people commented that they wanted to do the same thing but weren't sure how it would fare.....well ...»
here are some updated pics of how mine made it through the summer....I'm quite happy with it....(pls disregard the leaves that have fallen in the flower bed, that's a never ending battle for me unfortunately) The only thing I'm a little disappointed with is the burgundy colored sedum doesn't show much color and I don't know if it's because it doesn't get enough sun? or what the problem is with it?? otherwise, it looks great in my opinion! lol.

  • Admittedly, I love the ambiance the lights add.

    Beautiful. Such a great job. She must have a passion for this type of work. I know I do.

    Feb. Ours is very healthy looking, but the one I gave to my Mom is not. She always has very good luck with her flowers and she has babied it from the start. Any ideas what might be the problem. She says the leaves are just drying up and curling up.
