The Christmas Cactus is a popular houseplant known for its vibrant, colorful blooms that typically appear around the holiday season. Unlike traditional cacti, it has flat, segmented stems and thrives in humid environments. Its scientific name is *Schlumbergera*, and it is native to the tropical rainforests of Brazil. This plant requires specific care, including indirect sunlight and well-draining soil. It prefers to be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry. With proper care, the Christmas Cactus can live for many years and may even bloom annually, making it a cherished addition to holiday decorations.
