Christmas cacti can be propagated by cutting off a small “Y”-shaped segment from the tips of the stems. The segment should only be taken from a healthy part of the plant.
Plant the cut segment by sticking it in slightly sandy soil for about a quarter of its length. Moisten the potting soil evenly and place it in a bright place but away from direct sunlight.
To form roots for new plants, cut the shoots at the tips at the second junction of each plant. The cut part should show signs of growth after a few weeks, after which it can be transplanted into another pot with a mixture of soil, compost and sand.

Watering is very important for Christmas cacti. The plant needs to be watered frequently and abundantly in spring and summer to keep the soil moist at all times without stagnating water.
Water frequently and allow the soil to dry out, but never completely. Excessive watering can cause the roots to rot.
The Christmas cactus prefers temperatures between 15°C and 21°C and medium humidity. It may be a good idea to place a pebble bowl filled with water under the Christmas cactus pot to increase the humidity.
Once your Christmas cactus has finished flowering (usually in the fall), allow the plant to complete its dormant cycle by reducing the frequency of watering and light. Make sure the plant gets at least 12–14 hours of darkness and a temperature between 10°C and 12°C. Keep the plant away from heat sources (for example, stoves or radiators) and drafts of cold air.
