How to Care For Zygo Cacti
Zygo cactus, also known as Christmas cactus or Thanksgiving cactus, is a popular succulent plant prized for its colorful, tubular flowers that bloom in winter. This plant is native to Brazil and thrives in indoor environments, making it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts. Zygo cactus is relatively easy to care for, requiring well-draining soil and occasional pruning to maintain its shape and promote new growth.
How Much Light Do Zygo Cacti Need?
Zygo cactus thrives in bright, indirect light, making it ideal for locations near a window with sheer curtains. It can also tolerate some direct sunlight, especially during the winter months, but too much direct light can cause its leaves to burn. Rotate the plant occasionally to ensure even exposure to light and promote balanced growth.
How Much Water Do Zygo Cacti Need?
Zygo cactus prefer to dry out slightly between waterings, so water them when the top inch of soil feels dry. Water thoroughly, allowing excess water to drain away to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. During the growing season in spring and summer, water more frequently, but reduce watering in the fall and winter when growth slows down.
