Schlumbergera.

Schlumbergera belongs to the family Cactus. The native land of this plant is South America, where it grows in moist forests on the ocean coast.
Branched stems of Schlumbergera oblate. The flowers bloom at the ends of the segments. The most common color of flowers is crimson, there are white, cream, lavender, salmon, orange-red, dark red and purple flowers. There are multicolor flowers.

Schlumbergera feels best in a bright, but shaded place from the bright sun. Burning sun rays - one of the main causes of yellowing, redness and drying of shoots-segments. Schlumbergera is successfully grown on the windowsills of windows oriented to the north and east. On the southern and western sides in the summer it is desirable to shade the plant from direct sunlight. The adult bush, from time to time (not during budding and flowering), turns to the lighter side, otherwise it will lose shape and become one-sided. In summer, you can take a pot of Schlumbergera to fresh air.

Watering the plant only with warm water. Excess water leads to rotting of the root system, which often causes the death of the plant. During the flowering period (since the mass appearance of the buds), watering is increased. From mid-April to September, watered only as the soil dries. Flowers are trying not to moisturize.
