how often does a christmas cactus need to be watered

Christmas cactus needs to be watered once every week or every two weeks depending on the climate. Make sure to keep the soil moist but not soggy, as overwatering can cause the roots to rot. Also, make sure to not let the soil completely dry out between waterings. If you notice the leaves starting to shrivel or the soil is dry to the touch, it's time to water your plant.
