Beautiful!

Here is my Christmas CactusView attachment 1629812

That is gorgeous too!

The key to getting them to bloom is long hours of darkness and cool temperatures. Those that are kept in well lit heated rooms will not bloom.

My mother kept one in her bay window on the west side of the house with the curtain closed at night and it would bloom all winter long. The on she kept in her kitchen where it was almost always near 80°F and well lit for at least 16 hours a day, never bloomed.

I kept one facing a huge south facing window in my living room with a wood stove running all winter and it never bloomed. I moved it to an unlit, unheated room and it bloomed within a month. I keep one in a kitchen bay window on the north side of the house now. It blooms profusely at Thanksgiving and Easter with some blooms all winter and this year it even had one blossom in July.

My friend has gorgeous, huge Violets and hers are in her kitchen. Her kitchen is on the cool side and she has tinted windows. Her Christmas cactus is in the same room and does well also

Does anyone have lettuce in their stores? We still don’t.

We do. Is there a shortage somewhere?

I watered my Christmas cactus today. I will know if I can finally toss it in about two weeks.

Each time I think it’s dead, it comes back.

In the spring, I will plant every seedling. I may intentionally kill indoor plants, but I simply cannot throw out a living thing for no reason.

I may be a little special.

Apparently the color is a surprise. The woman I spoke with said she would switch this

For this

Which looks almost exactly like this.

The confirmation still says black.
