How to clone Christmas Cactus

Duplicating your Christmas Cactus is fairly easy. Basically, every sections of it can be used to start a new plant, Here is how !

  1. Grab any end section of any branch of your cactus and twist it until it detaches
  2. Lay the detached sections on a wet towel, and fold it in a way that the bottom of every sections is covered with the towel
  3. Wait a couple days/weeks and make sure they stay wet during that time. They will eventually grow roots, that's when you can plant them in soil !
