Jen asked:
I received a Christmas cactus about 2 1/2 weeks ago with some buds just starting and some buds almost all the way open. Since then, most of the flowers have bloomed beautifully, but about a week after the flower blooms, the flower itself starts to wilt and shrivel. Is this normal? The rest of the plant looks healthy, it’s just the flowers that are starting to shrivel up after blooming. If this is normal, should I pinch off the wilting flowers or just leave it alone?

I wonder why the tips of the leaves of my indoor cactus plant curl and eventually turn black. Is this due to too much water or lack of it? I don’t know the variety of this plant but it’s the type of cactus smooth leaves and no spikes.
