Question
Hello there. For a few years now, I have been "trying" to get my Christmas Cactus to flower. When I got it the first christmas, it flowered and I have not seen a single bud since. I don't think its dead because the leaves are still growing, but I am at a loss to do. I water it on a regular basis, but that doesnt seem to have worked. Could you possibly tell me why my cactus is NOT flowering and offer some kind of suggestion as to how i CAN get it to flower.

Farewell, many thanks for your time and happy holidays

Answer
Dear Carmel,

I myself don't grow these plants but there is an excellent FAQ that will help you get your plant to flower. IT can be found at:

I hope this helps you!
