I have a Christmas cactus, which is now at least 10 years old and beginning to look very nice. At the moment it lives in an add-on extension, i.e. quite cool, next to an outside door. I'd like to bring it inside where I can see it all the time (and show it off!), but I believe they don't like to be moved, particularly into a warm room. Any advice, please?

I have two different colours in a pot in my living room which is kept at 70 degrees in the evening and in sunlight through a patio door facing south all day and it`s blooming lovely at this time. It stays there all year round and is about 3 yrs old.

right - perhaps I should bite the bullet and try it, then! Many thanks.
The buds form facing the side of the plant getting the most light, if you move the plant whilst it's in bud or flower and you position it differently the buds will want to face the light and as they're so fragile will drop off.

I'd better leave it for the moment then. I shall have to move into the extension so that I can enjoy it! Thanks for the advice.
