– How to plant a Christmas Cactus
Repot every 1-2 years, when the root ball has filled the pot. The best time to do this is in the spring, when it has come out of its dormant period.
Transplant it into a slightly larger pot, as the roots like to be comfortable. Use a cactus compost or compost with a little sand mixed in for drainage.
Christmas Cacti grow quite wide, so a wider pot is better than a deep one for stability.
