Originating from Holland, this hybrid is part of the celebrated Schlumbergera Truncata Dancer Series, known for its resilience and prolific flowering. 'Butterfly' thrives in both outdoor partially shaded positions and sunny indoor spots. For optimal blooming and to prevent leggy growth, it requires bright, filtered light with short days and long, cool nights, around 11-13 hours of darkness.
Despite being a cactus, overwatering can lead to rot, so it’s essential to let the soil dry on top before watering again. Use a well-drained cactus or succulent potting mix, and apply a light water-soluble fertilizer in early spring and late summer to promote blooms. This epiphytic cactus, native to Brazil, grows naturally on rock crevices and tree boughs, pollinated by hummingbirds.
Perfect for pots and hanging baskets, Zygocactus 'Butterfly' can be grown on patios, under trees, or indoors, adding a touch of delicate beauty to any space. Its minimal care requirements and striking blooms make it a charming and delightful addition to your succulent collection.
