Yellow Holiday Cactus Plants – 3 Inch Pot – Christmas & Thanksgiving Cactus

Bring Holiday Cheer with Yellow Holiday Cactus Plants

Enjoy the vibrant beauty of Yellow Holiday Cactus Plants, also known as Christmas or Thanksgiving Cactus. These easy-to-care-for plants add a touch of warmth and color to any indoor or outdoor space. With proper care, you can have these plants bloom beautifully, bringing the holiday spirit to your home. Our plants come in a 3-inch pot, with 2 plants per pot.

To ensure your Christmas Cactus thrives, provide bright, indirect light, avoiding direct sunlight that can scorch the leaves. If kept indoors, an east or north-facing window is ideal. Maintain a temperature between 60-70°F (16-21°C) and provide high humidity by misting or using a pebble tray. Protect them from drafts, heating vents, or air conditioners.

Water your Thanksgiving Cactus when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry, using room-temperature water to prevent shocking the roots. Be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. After blooming, reduce watering slightly to allow for a short rest period. Use a well-draining, slightly acidic soil mix of cactus soil and perlite, and ensure the pot has drainage holes.

Fertilize your Holiday Cactus with a balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) once a month from spring to early fall. Reduce fertilization in the fall and winter months. To encourage blooming, provide cooler temperatures (50-60°F or 10-15°C) and 12-14 hours of darkness for about 6 weeks before the expected blooming period. Reduce watering slightly before flowering to help set buds.
