I have a christmas cactus about 6 years old and it’s huge and mishapen. I would like to cut it back, but not sure I can. Please let me know what you think.
Sure, you can trim back your Christmas cactus at any time. This would also be a good time to re-pot it in some new potting soil. It will love you for it!
And you are in for a bonus. All the parts that you cut off (in fact each “joint” that you cut off) can be put in potting soil to start a new plant!! By next Christmas, you will have plants for all your friends!
