Discover the unique beauty of the Christmas Cactus at Viveros González! Despite its name suggesting festivity, this charming specimen isn't your typical cactus but an epiphytic succulent that captivates with its fleshy leaves and vibrant flowers.

Its history traces back to the tropical jungles of Brazil, where it clings to trees and rocks, absorbing moisture from the air. Despite its exotic appearance, caring for it is surprisingly simple. Its hanging leaves store water, making it drought-resistant, and its flowers are simply marvelous, especially when the days shorten and new shoots emerge in a spectacle of unique colors and shapes.

Caring for them is straightforward yet crucial: loose, well-draining soil is essential. Light exposure is also crucial; avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burning, opting instead for indirect light or partial shade.

In our selection, we offer different genera like Schlumbergera Bridgesii (also known as Zygocactus Truncates), Schlumbergera Gaertneri (or Ripsalidopsis Gaertneri), and Schlumbergera Truncata (also called Zygocatus Truncatus), each with its own characteristics and fascinating flowers that vary in colors and shapes.

Did you know you can easily propagate this wonder? Cut a piece of the stem and plant it in a mix of sandy, moist soil to grow new plants. It's a perfect way to expand your succulent collection!

In addition to our experience, we've consulted various specialized sources to provide you with the best care advice. Explore our catalog and immerse yourself in the charming world of the Christmas Cactus at Viveros González!
