Is your Schlumbergera x buckleyi not growing as well as others? Only by comparison do you realize what was missing: grafting onto Pereskia

Looking at this picture, does it remind you of the Schlumbergera x buckleyi you grafted yourself? Why is it that other people's Schlumbergera x buckleyi always grow so well? Actually, the rootstock is also key. Ones like this grafted onto cactus, although they look no different from those grafted onto Pereskia.

But if you want to achieve this kind of result, you really do need to have Pereskia ready.

You can decide how high to graft based on the length of the Pereskia. Of course, I know you all want tall multi-tiered ones, and all you need to do is grow the Pereskia a bit thicker and sturdier.

After grafting onto Pereskia, use a support frame to hold the shape in place.

Before long, you'll have harvested that "other people's" kind of Pereskia. (Image source: Yi Xie Gan Xia)
