Bring instant festive cheer to your home with the Christmas Cactus, bursting with vibrant winter blooms. Easy to care for and perfect for bright, indirect light, this compact indoor plant adds colour to any desk, shelf, or windowsill. Low-maintenance and long-lasting, it’s the perfect gift for plant lovers—or a cheerful treat for yourself.
Question: Is it really a cactus?
Answer: Nope!
It’s mostly historical and visual. When European botanists first encountered Schlumbergera in the 19th century, they noticed its succulent stems, which looked similar to desert cacti. Even though it’s tropical, it belongs to the Cactaceae family, so technically it is a cactus—but it’s very different from the spiky, desert-dwelling types most people picture.
The “Christmas” part comes from its winter bloom, and the “cactus” part stuck because of the family name and its fleshy, segmented stems.
Note: Decorative pot sold separately (11cm Elho)
