JB--
I have had a red Easter cactus for a few years. Since I may nor be taking the correct care of it.
it seldom blooms--and if it does--it is in June or such.
Last year, I bought a PINK Easter cactus at Rite Aid--of all places. I thought--WOW!!!
Me thinks they were artificially dyed to be pink. I will see if anything pink shows up in spring.
I meant to take a lot of cuttings from my Holiday cactus--but somehow never got to it.
Overall--I don't think they are doing a well as in years past. Sections keep falling off...
Is that bc of too much watering--or not enough? I just cannot let mt CC's dry up--even if it is
their "rest" period--so I water lightly. The fronds just shrivel up and fall off. Once they are shriveled up--
they never root again.
I know it is the environment I have to keep them in during the winter. Not enough light. Too dry. Too warm
bc my forced air heat vent is really close. I bet they would do better in a cooler environment.
They did SOOO well a couple years ago.
Should I be fertilizing them at this time?
JB--I have an overabundance of Spider Plants. All kinds.
I recently re-potted my old "onnie Spider". It was getting so bogged down in the pot. Splaying apart.
Took it all out--trimmed some roots--divided them up and re-potted them in fresh soil mix.
Right now--they are just recovering...I wanted to do this before I take them outside.
If you want some Bonnie (curly) Spiders--I can send yu some. LMK.
