Dead flower?

My fishhook cactus flowered and now the flower has passed. Do I pick it off or just let it fall off naturally? #CactusClique

I'm more of a "leaf it alone" gal. It'll fall off when it completely dries up.

@sarahsalith yup, I agree. It’s really up to you. You won’t hurt it but I would just let the cactus decide when to let it go :)

Unless it starts rotting I usually just leave my leaves and such alone
