The flowers on my sunrise cactus are beginning to shrivel and die. What am I doing wrong?

Question

The flowers of my sunrise cactus have been progressively shriveling up and dying. I'm not watering it daily, I know it doesn't need alot of it. It is in my window but the sun has not been beaming on it at all. It was recently transported from one city to another and it looked horrible for a while but got better and now this is happening. Just wanted to know if there was something I could do to keep it from dying.

Answer 1

I had one do the same thing and I was watering it too much.I only water it about every 3 weeks now and it is fine.

Answer 2

Flowers fade over time. Just be consistent with your water schedule and let it get plenty of light. Some cacti require a dry period then a wet period to stimulate new blooms. Most likely it is resting from the stress of the move and the recent rejuvenation.

Answer 3

Become a scientist and learn how to change the molecular structure, purpose and effects of the otherwise natural process of death and disintegration...
