Hehehe ... giving it your best "shot" ? Ringo got to sing one song ... early on, didn't he? I think it was called "this boy"?

You know what, my dear Dragonfly? I think you may belong in here ... up on one of the shelves ... the Dragonfly Encyclopaedia on Beatles ...

Everything but running around and being noisy is appropriate to a library...

Well, I shall wait for the completion of the Dance Hall ... for now, having one quiet place is rather nice, don't you think?

*A few alert books sit up and listen more closely ...*

Oh dear! Christmas Cactus needs watering...
*starts to move around in the garden to check the situation, seems to be a little worried*
I should not stay offline for 3 days, I think next time I have to ask somebody to take care of the cacti when I'm away.

I was afraid of over-watering them - I'd heard somewhere that they do not need much water. How often should they be watered?

Hati

Usually I water most of them once a month in winter-time, some twice. But Christmas Cactus is in blossom so it needs to be watered in every 3 days or so. And somewhile it needs fertilizer (is this a correct word?), too.

Yes, fertilizer is the right word. Slow release fertilizer, I assume?

Hati

I need to use fertilizer (awful word) for making the cactus stronger. Here's not enough light for it, it's not a greenhouse with exact temperature etc, so it just may drop the flowers if it doesn't like something. And yes, it lasts longer on fertilizers.

I see! I'm afraid I am not a good gardener - I have not enough spare time ... but I could water the cacti in here next time you go away ... just make sure I have the exact instructions! smiley - smiley
