How to plant & care for Spring Cactus

WATER:

This cactus requires little watering. Water them about every 1-2 weeks and make sure the soil dries out in between waterings. Mist them a few times a week!

EXPOSURE:

Your Spring Cactus will have the most beautiful blooms when placed in a spot that gets indirect sunlight all day.

PRUNING:

Be sure to deadhead your Spring Cactus immediately after the blooms finish. This will get you another round of beautiful blooms to look at!

Take your existing Spring Cactus out of the soil and divide the roots. Plant the separated root systems into new pots with nutrient dense soil. You can also propagate by taking cuttings from your Spring Cactus and placing them in soil.
