My X-mas cactus looks too long and lanky. It's healthy, but I think it needs a good pruning. It needs to become "bushier". So when's the best time (season) to cut it? I don't want to cut it at the wrong time and affect its growth. Thanks for any help! [Wink]

Anytime after blooming is fine. So if it's done blooming, get to it!
