Whats a Christmas Cactus?
The Christmas cactus is actually a tropical plant, and contrary to mistaken belief, it requires regular watering. It can, however, store some water in its leaves, just not as much as many people think. A Christmas cactus is a good gift choice for gardening fans. Despite the popularity of the Christmas cactus, it will not be a good gift choice for everyone on your Christmas list. You probably don’t want to give a Christmas cactus to someone who will be overwhelmed with the responsibility of caring for one. Your forgetful cousin Lisa is unlikely to appreciate or enjoy having a Christmas cactus. Your aunt who loves to garden, though, will probably adore having a new plant in her house.
