This Christmas Cactus was taken as a small cutting from one over a hundred years old. It usually blooms twice a year. Easter and Thanksgiving, never Christmas.


Lovely plant HT, but this is a picture of a Thanksgiving Cactus. A Christmas Cactus has no teeth on it's "leaves" They are smooth and sort of rounded. Nice picture anyway!

Ours does the same! It's just about to bloom now in time for Thanksgiving and will be shot by Christmas!

I guess it's me who's mixed up, not the cactus.

We both need another cactus. One clearly labeled "Christmas Cactus" at the store!
