A healthy start: special nutrients

Fertilizer is unnecessary while your Christmas cactus is in bloom. Otherwise, a monthly application should suffice. If you want your Christmas cactus to rebloom, use a blooming fertilizer suitable for indoor plants during the growing season and follow the instructions on the packaging.

When you notice new leaf segments, fertilize once every two weeks for optimal growth.
