Plants will be labeled by Name!!! Names will be written in black waterproof marker on one of the leaves Care Instructions: The plants in pictures are a example of what you will receive. Each plant is well rooted and ready to be planted. I recommend starting them in 2″ pots. And only move up to next size pot when it becomes root bound. Do not over water them. Keep them moist but not soaked. Use a fast draining soil mixture. Feed them during the spring and summer with liquid Miracle Grow every 2/3 weeks. Do not put them in direct sun. They like softer indirect light. Protect the from temps below 40 THE BLOOM PICTURES USED IN MY LISTINGS ARE MY PICTURES THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM MY MOTHER PLANTS! These plugs will bloom this year. Christmas Cactus will bloom the very first year they are grown. Christmas cactus are not like so many other plants that you have to wait years for them to bloom. These plugs are very healthy, very well rooted and with the proper care will live for years and years to come.
