Christmas Cactus Plants

Q.I have 1 very small section left from a beautiful Christmas cactus. I am trying to grow it, but it is not growing. It has small roots

but it has been months like this. Why? It is maybe 1/2 in. high and 1/4 wide. It started out 1/4 in. high and 1/8 wide but, like I said, it has taken months to get it to this point. How can I get it to grow?

I'm afraid that this will be a slow process. You can help it out by raising the humidity some, though. It will produce roots faster in higher humidity.
