    I have a Christmas cactus that was left out and did get semi- frosted. It's been indoors for a week now and looks mostly the same. One half is fine. The other side seems semi-soft, but I can't tell if it's going to die or not. Should I leave it in the window and see what happens, or cut off the softer pieces?

    Any updates on how it is doing?

    Hi Daniel,
    No one gave me an answer (at least that I could find), so I opted to cut off the softer parts. The woody stem remains in tact, and the half that was not injured is blooming. I guess I will find out if the half I tremoved the softer pieces from will bloom again at some point. I believe I am going to move them into a larger pot with fresh soil. Thank you for the reply.
