Care of Christmas Cactus and Aloe Vera Plants


Question
I have attached pictures of the Christmas Cactus and Aloe Vera plants I have recently acquired.  How do I care for them?  Lighting, water, temperature, etc.?
Thanks,
Katherine

Answer
Dear Katherine,

The pictures did not come through, however here is what you should do. Keep both out of direct sunlight, but in the brightest spots possible. Water the Christmas cactus enough to keep the soil moist but not wet. On the Aloe, water only when the soil is dry. Both have similar temperature requirements, don't let either of them go below 40 degrees F. Hope this helps.


Sincerely,

Greg
